As previously reported, Gremlins have beset Skyelark in
the form of a non functioning Autopilot, however from the crews perspective
worse was to come when, we were faced with telling the skipper, that yet again,
the the heads had become blocked [that is the toilet for the non seafaring types
amongst you].
This was a thorny subject as he was already beset with
several other maintenance issues, on top of his normal work load of running the
ship, however he said he would look into it, so to speak.
Several hours later the crew felt it was about time
politely check on progress. When asked how he was getting on, the skipper
replied, that despite hours of investigative work into the problems, he still
didn’t really have anything to go on......!
Oh dear I think we’ve all been at sea too
long!
