Abacos 2019

Waiting in ft Lauderdale today. Team decision to postpone run to tomorrow as weather not cooperating.

One engine down. Turning back

Wow! So sorry. How far out were you? Do you know what happened?

Ouch that stings! Hopefully it’s a minor issue that you can get fixed quickly!

The engine relay for fuel pump failed as per the warning message. Limping back to marina and will try to buy spares today and try to resolve it. Worse case scenario the mechanic will check it tomorrow morning. Thanks.

We were out around 23-24 miles when the issue occurred. The water was beautiful and calm and we were cruising at 30 mph.

On a positive note: better limping back in that kind of water than in 4 footers....

Sorry to hear about the triubles, but a relay is generally an easy fix.

Fantastic weather today. A little bummed that we couldn’t take advantage of it.

Make sure to buy at least 2 (in case the other engine goes out).

Guys. Thanks for the support. Postponed Abacos to next year. Boat in repair for next couple of days and it doesn’t make sense after that.

Yeah @Berrie If the boat is ready the next few days will do a Bimini run on the weekend as a consolation.
