Oh boy, it was a long one......all was well, I was at the wheel for quite awhile so Bill could rest and do his navigating..I'm going along, 2 AM, oops, no engine, Bill the engine died, gets up calmly, checks filters, replaces them, I hold flashlight, Gen right in the middle of everything has to pee - what a circus, actually we all worked well together, Bill fixes it, gets it started and off we go. But a little scary drifting along out to sea w/no power...I did have beautiful Atlantic City to stir at though...Here are some shots, the moon also was very beautiful....Looks like we're gonna run out of time so we are docking Spirit at Summit North Marina in the C & D Canal......
