01/03/23 Weds.  Repaired genoa sail for Bertel and Frel, using the seaplane hangar again for the repair.

03/03/23 Fri.  We were on 'Zizi' for most of the day while Ana made a cover pattern for their new dinghy.

04/03/23 Sat.  Cruise ships are once more visiting the Philippines after the Covid pandemic.  Last month, the first one in three years, "Seabourn Encore" arrived in Puerto Princesa on a 14 day cruise, earlier this week the Dutch ship "Westerdam" docked for 12 hours and today a P & O Cruise ship, the "Arcadia" arrived on a 100 day/99 night World cruise from Southampton.

06/03/23 Mon.  Another cruise ship docked, this time it was the Oceania Cruise ship "Nautica".

07/03/23  Tues.  Yet another cruise ship - the "Seven Seas Mariner" made a day visit today, the only cruise ship in the World with all en suite cabins and all with a balcony.  She is on a cruise from Miami to Barcelona and if you feel like joining her, tickets are between 78,000 and 209,000 USD for the entire cruise - I think I might give that a miss!!

11/03/23 Fri.  Extended my visa this morning although I didn't really want to - I want to get going and sail back to Kudat but Ana is still sewing dinghy cover for Zizi's new dinghy, so I guess we have to stay for a few days!

12/03/23 Sat.  Another two jobs have dropped into Ana's lap, window covers for a French owned catamaran and some winch covers for another cat.

19/03/23 Sun.  Ana continues her sewing jobs.  Jun came over and cleaned the bottom of the boat for me and I have sorted out an electrical fault which involved taking down the nav berth ceiling, two walls and three switch panels!

21/03/23 Tues.  The vernal equinox and the funeral service of my brother Clive.  I am sad not to be able to say my final goodbye to him but thanks to Kevin, I was able to watch the service live by streaming on the internet.

26/03/23 Sun.  Today it's Clive's birthday, I hope he's having a whisky somewhere.

28/03/23 Tues.  We are slowly getting the boat ready for heading off to Kudat.  'Star Breeze', another cruise liner docked this morning on a 14 day one way trip from Singapore to Hong Kong.  Two more cruise ships are scheduled here on the 2nd April.
