[status] We?ve had a very busy several weeks getting Field Trip ready to go back to Yap. We have new engines! We had them in place before Christmas so it was a heck of a present. Volvo paid for everything, including dockage fees, wood, etc for all the lifts required to remove the engines on our boat. I?m thrilled. Literally, I probably spent a grand total of $25 for some extra wood to brace the engines, and cardboard, otherwise, that was it. The invoice to Volvo was $8,500 for labor and materials, not counting the engines?so it was a $40k+ present. We will be leaving on Friday for Yap. All is well and we are getting excited to get on the sea again!
