Jerry's Morgan's Bluff to Wardrick Wells

On 1-19-16 we motorsailed on down to Wardrick Wells and anchored in 7' of water 
next to the south mooring field.  The next morning we dinghied in to our private little sand beach and hiked the macheted trails to the ranger office and to Boo Boo Hill.  I felt an affinity for all the signed driftwood on the hill due to my unique sailing abilities.  Back on the boat  I turned on the watermaker noticing  a slight drip from underneath it that turned into 2 or 3 drips so I shut it down and changed the order of things to do today.  I had also discovered a design flaw in the Beta engine that allowed the raw water intake to vibrate against the motor mount creating a pencil lead size hole.  It immediately went to the top of the list.  JB Weld, 2" of 1" hose and two hours and it was marked off the list.  We saw a conch moving across the floor of the bay but did not get a pic.
