Salty Abandon #22 - Sail to Bahamas - Update from Tampa Area

Want to support the podcast? http://patreon.com/SaltyAbandon Salty Abandon was stressed going across the Gulf in 35 knot winds and 6' waves at times. I have some issues to correct here in the Tampa area before I can continue on to the Bahamas! I forgot to mention in the video my fuel filter issue. The Yacht Rigger said he can address that, too! UPDATE: I met with Richard of The Yacht Rigger the morning of Oct 31st. The news is...I need all new standing rigging and chain plates. It's going to be costly but I will be set for 15 years. I will take the boat to another marina on 11-1-16 to be hauled out for two weeks. I'm going home for the two weeks and am staying positive. I will be back to finish my Bahamas trip.
