Hauled out and almost ready to go

Sabbatical III was hauled out today.  A few more repair and maintenance items and then we are ready to return to the US.  The thick schools of big blue jellyfish were a concern this morning as they twice got caught in the water intake that cools the engine and clogged it.  But we made it OK with a little help from our friends.  We will fill in the details later.
