Jib Block Woes

Last weekend we blew out one of our jib blocks. 

The sail track is original to the boat. We were hoping to order new blocks and put them on the track cars. That was a failure so now we are trying to replace the cars too. On paper it looks like the ones we have ordered should fit, but we won't know until next week when we are leaving on a ten day trip. I have all my fingers crossed....


Meanwhile the pump for the shower sump is either slightly blocked or just barely working.  We probably should have shop access it out before we put any water Into it. 

We did a mid season oil change since the oil was looking quite black and nasty. 

I'm ready to do some sailing. The winds have been too light for the past two or three weekends so we have mostly been motoring and swimming.
