@#$%&!

That is what I almost said when I pressed the starter button and the engine didn't start. Daddy wen't down below just to find that the solenoid that led to the starter motor was defective. this was the wost time and place this could happen; we were headed into an anchorage. So, we put up the staysail and headed to a different anchorage. we finally were able to jump the solenoid and start the engine. Whew!
