We Are Back On Board And New Chain Installed, Etc..

After a small wonderful week in Beauvallon where we enjoyed the luxury of the house, garden, swimming pool, beach and friends, we drove back yesterday to Port Napoleon to continue the work on New Dawn.

Early today we finally received the new 104 m (12 m/m) anchor chain and we installed it. It weights about 500 kg together with the anchor and normal cost is € 1.550 but we negotiated it for € 925 (ex anchor), which is an excellent price.

Laying it out to install the metering marks.

The anchor chain locker well stored with the new chain.

New bilge pump parts arrived today, but it is not really working well yet? Simrad main navigation system repaired, but delayed in arriving and we worry why.
