Along with all the good times and fun, we do have to make time to have Knotugal maintained. John noticed the rudder seal was leaking a bit of water. We arranged to have her pulled out and the seal fixed. Tonight we are in a workyard marina on the Dania Canal, just south of Fort Lauderdale. We are surrounded by boats having work done. It is basic accomodations, but we do have power. Tomorrow Knotugal will be pulled out on a sling, set on chocks, and the work will begin. Jake will stay on the boat, but Dorsey and I will have to find a way to kill 3 hours in a boat yard.
BTW, we did run aground this morning. We were rounding a curve near the Haulover inlet when it happened. Although we were still in the marked channel, there was some bad shoaling on the edge. It took about 5 minutes to get to deeper water.
