Farmers Cay, Bahamas N23*57.24' W076*19.012

Hi All,
Just a short update to say we have moved a little further north to check out some more islands and resupply. We started to come here yesterday, but our engine did not turn over, but was easily corrected with a ball peen hammer, still haven't found a new starter. After leaving ,Bill and Barbs boat developed a cooling problem and we towed them back to our anchorage. Between our supply of parts and Chris and Jackie on High Heeled, we managed to get their boat up and running. Chris also had a problem with his windlass and managed to make a new key for that. We decided that we should call it a day and have some drinks and dinner. We were fortunate enough to harvest some conch and 2 days earlier Francie made conch chowder, and yesterday Jackie made conch fritters. a great time was had by all. We will be here for a few days and hope to harvest more conch and some lobsters.
Fair Winds, Peace and Terwilliger, Ken,Francie & Skipper
