You can come back two more feet skipper

Hi Everyone;
We are at Port McNeill, which is on the north end of Vancouver Island. We developed a problem with the starboard engine and it looks like we are going to need to remove the cylinder head and do a valve job. Not a good thing! I found a good mechanic that has a shop here in town and has been fixing diesel engines for many years. He is trying to work me up a ballpark price right now. The alternative is to run back home on one engine and then fix it there. We're still a long way from home so I guess we'll get it fixed here.
We came across the Queen Charlotte Straits a few days ago. It was foggy all the way so we steered by our GPS navigation system and kept our eye on the radar looking out for other boats. The swells come in from the Pacific there and it was a little rough, but we made it OK. It was about a 5 hour trip.
We have good Internet here and phone service. Most likely will be here most of the week. Regards, Russ, Pat, Maddie
