[status] Departed Port Adelaide at 9pm local Saturday 22 December. Port engine overheated. Sailed overnight on a lumpy sea. Pulled into Second Valley at dawn to deal with the engine issue. Problem solving involved Peter diving into the sea to check inlets, removing raw water pump and using the Pilot Bob method which involved using the deck wash to flush sea water back through the saildrive and clear the blockage. After two and a half hours, the issue is resolved and we are ready to head off once more. Would like to stay and enjoy one of our favourite places but the wind is right to go.
