Just about done now

Tonight is the last night of my last Baja cruise for this rotation. The seas have been pretty rough, so we have spent the last two days just cruising from beach to beach around the island of Espiritu Santo. It’s been kind of interesting to see some of the parts of the island we don’t usually go to. I’m going to miss Baja, but luckily I’ll be back.

For the next couple of days I’ll be doing odd jobs around the boat, giving it some loving that it truly needs. Hopefully I can get it to a point that it the other engineer isn’t too busy during his rotation. I think that I can get it there, but I still have a good amount of work ahead of me.

Tomorrow is the last day for quite a bit of the crew here. There is rotation leaving, and they won’t be back for 16 weeks, plus 3 of the 6 stewards are finishing up a 6 month contract. When I come back in 6 weeks there will be quite a few new faces. I’m excited about that, it’s kinda cool to see people come and go, and watch how they adapt to living on a boat. Some handle it well, others don’t, and still others leave. It never works out like I would imagine it, but that’s life. I’m cool with it.
