http://www.thebluepearl.ca/2015/03/jabsco-junk.html
Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Grrrr Not happy, Jabsco. Bolts at lower left are all supposed to be the same length. Now, cleaning the boat after a passage with our Jabsco Par Max 4 Washdown Pump, the breaker started clicking… had a look and the pump has fallen apart. This time it appears that the plastic that secures the bolt that holds it together has broken. This one is thr...So thatR...

Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Sunday, December 21, 2014. Today is my last day on Blue Pearl before I head home to see what Pam got me for Christmas. I hope it is better than what I got her (a couple of cleaned pumps, a new water system pump and a new propane solenoid! They are headed for Sidney. Just because it's there! Off to Sydney next - whew! They look lovely. but don't work. Roll It was awesome. So now it is t...

Roger Family Sailing Adventures: April 2015
http://www.thebluepearl.ca/2015_04_01_archive.html
Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Sunday, April 19, 2015. Home for the summer. We are sitting in Dallas-Fort Worth airport, waiting for our flight. Had a glitch in Miami so we didn’t get to our hotel until 4:15 this morning. Up at 6:30 for the shuttle back to DFW. Didn’t get our moneys worth for that bed. Shutting the boat down is hot, dirty, hard work. Better now that we are at North Sound but still…. Time to come out.

Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Monday, March 23, 2015. Bermuda, Bahamas, Barbados - NO. BARBUDA! Blue Pearl lying off Barbuda. Helping Cool Change with their dinghy. Barbuda is the most Bahamian looking island we’ve seen down here. It is flat, flat, flat. The highest point is about 200 feet above sea level with salt ponds and mangrove lagoons. Anyway, we all survived, dried off and had a great tour. George told ...

Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Monday, April 13, 2015. Back in Jumby Bay.

More stripping before sanding. Sanded, cleaned with oxalic acid, teak cleaner, TSP. Luxury accommodations for Murphy. We’re anchored off bea...

Roger Family Sailing Adventures. Keeping family and friends up to date on our travels in Florida, The Bahamas and south. Thursday, November 27, 2014. I get it now why Pam thought it was a good idea for Steve and Stu to help me splash the boat. It is hot, dirty, ugly work and all you want to do is have another beer and go for a swim. and pay someone else to do the work! Good play, Pammy! Anyway. WE'RE IN! And parked in our favorite slip at Le Phare Bleu Marina. The monkey is the one on top. The water pump...
