Jay Arrives

Daryl and I drove down to Fort Lauderdale and picked Jay up from the airport there.  He has decided to have a break from sailmaking in Auckland and cruise with us for a while.
He is quite interested in the art business, so Daryl suggested he join us and as we head north, they can visit the galleries en route together, and Jay can learn about it as we go.
Put to work straight away, Jay is repairing one of the water pumps.                                                                                          
Our next tender?  It's the right color, but would it fit on our davits?
Moving on to Port Canaveral, Jay and I went to visit the Space Centre.  Good day out and the rocket park made even Jay look small!
Back at Millikens restaurant in Port Canaveral, the barman, Daryl saw us coming and decided to stock the bar with our  preferred wine, Oyster Bay, of course.
En route to Charleston we caught a beautiful sailfish.  We were ready to put it back, but sadly had done too much damage to the fish, so kept it.
