The wind is STILL raging. Isn't it ever going to run out of energy? It's been blowing 20 - 30 knots out of the east around the clock for five or six days now. We're almost ready to go back into the water but can't until the wind dies down.
The machine shop took the quarter-inch off the shaft. It fits fine now. Roy installed it and put the prop back on, but he needs a larger perry nut.
I went out to Gardens Mall, mailed the tax returns and some other stuff, bought a couple of books and a skirt. Then I walked to Winn-Dixie and bought as many groceries as I could carry. Got back to the boat around 3:30. Entered Bahamas waypoints into the GPS.
While Roy was riding his bike back from a store, he had to make an emergency stop to avoid a car, forgetting that he'd just had the brakes adjusted. The bike stopped instantly; Roy kept going. So I'm not the only one who knows how to fall off a bicycle. Fortunately, he wasn't seriously hurt. No broken bones.
