It got foggy, when we anchored the wind was pushing us too close for comfort towards another boat, in an emergency fashion we straightened out the boat and threw out the stern anchor. I went to work on trying to eliminate the loose steering wheel. Lifting open a cover in the lazarette revealed the chain/wire pulley system that rotates the rudder. Found out I need more serious tools than I own to really fix it and the previous owner has it tuned very one-sided but functional. All the steering components look to be in great shape. Maybe a project for another day. That work space is one of the more uncomfortable ones in the boat.
The sun came back out and we hung around until almost dark.
