The dinghy has been a problem since the get-go. Loosing air overnight despite our best attempt at patching it – Mark nicknamed it ‘Patches”. Then, the final straw the engine quits and we get a tow from another sailor (Richard aboard Sea Spice) just in time. Mark was already researching sources for new dinghies, he now had his eye on a new engine as well. We got on the VHF radio during the cruisers net and sold ‘Patches’ to Clay and Lisa aboard Benzailing in about 4 seconds. We agree to meet in Marathon Key to finalize the transaction as this is where we are picking up our new dinghy.
