Darrel had chemo yesterday and started the new drug oxaliplatin. The biggest side effect with it is high sensitivity to cold. Has to wear gloves even to take something out of the fridge. Can’t drink anything very cold at all even the tap water at home! Other than that, he is feeling okay.

We packed when we got home until it got too hot to do anything. Did a little more after the sun went down. Got up this morning and finished. Boat was launched at the yacht club around 11:00. We left the dock at 11:16 and made it as far as G dock before the engine overheated!

Darrel tightened a few hoses, and we started it up again. The temp went down and off we went. Baffled as to why that happened. We are now halfway past Whidbey Isalnd and have had no other problems.

The boat is loaded down pretty well so it doesn’t bounce as much as normal. However, the weather and seas are pretty good. We are going on the outside of Whidbey and into the Straits of Juan de Fuca.

Saw a large pod, group, or whatever, of dolphins by Point No Point. Fun to see.

Made pretty good time and weather to Friday Harbor. Refueled and are going to go to customs at Bedwell next.
