A historical journal entry, preserved from the original Sailing Mavis blog. Equipment, condition and circumstances described here relate to the date of this story.
After traveling about 150 miles we developed an engine oil leak and had to stop here in Daytona Beach Shores for a few days to get things sorted out. Hoping to be back on the road Tuesday… This is why we stay inshore and shake things out for a few days before venturing out to sea. There are worse places to be hung up.
