For those of you on the edge of your seats, waiting to hear the resolution to our engine problems - the problem has been fixed. We asked a bunch of people and the consensus seemed to be that we probably had a dirty prop. Well, we knew this since Maryann had dove on it a couple of days ago. We just didn't believe a few barnacles could make the engine labor so. Today we had a local go down and clean the prop (Luperon harbor is almost totally land-locked and we think the town's sewage drains into the harbor - the locals don't seem to mind going into the water, but we aren't!). Anyway, instant fix!

We'll be looking for the next weather window to repeat our overnight to Rio San Juan or maybe even all the way to Escondido. It's looking like Thursday or Friday might do it. Keeping our fingers crossed!
