← Day 246

Apart — Kevin at the keeper's cottage, Jenny at the garden

Afternoon Preparation

Kevin moves toward the porch while Jenny stays by the raised garden wall.

No narrator was available, so nothing about this stretch was recorded.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the keeper's cottage

You inspect your gear to ensure everything is ready for the engine test tomorrow.

🔧 Kevin03:42

Kevin — walk to the workshop, pull the day tank, check fuel clarity, wipe the dipstick clean, set it beside the Yanmar for morning

💭 peek at the thought
Need to verify the prop shaft spins true at half throttle tomorrow. Bronze sleeve's pressed, nut torqued to 35, alignment checked at rest. Only way to know is under load. Also need fresh fuel in the day tank — last batch sat six weeks.

🔧 Kevin03:46

Kevin — climb the ladder to the radio mast, unscrew the shattered insulator remnants, fit the spare porcelain, wrap the base and coax joint with the last of the self-amalgamating tape and a layer of electrical tape, seal with silicone from the head

💭 peek at the thought
Fuel's clean enough. Water separator bowl clear. Now the radio — need it working for the morning supply boat check. Insulator's shattered, coax failed. Spare porcelain's in the drawer. Self-amalgamating tape's mostly gone. Might have to jury-rig the seal with electrical tape and silicone from the headlamp housing.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the garden

You look for new cracks in the stone work of the garden wall.

🌿 Jenny03:45

Jenny — kneel in the dirt and trace a hairline fracture near the base stones with a damp finger.

💭 peek at the thought
The salt is eating the mortar faster than I can patch it. If that wall shifts, the whole terrace goes.

🌿 Jenny03:49

Jenny — check the engine mounting bolts again—three of them stripped, one missing in the bilge. Need to find it.

💭 peek at the thought
The Yanmar still hums with that exact vibration from yesterday's load test. If it fails mid-salvage, I'm stranded here until the fourth rod breaks.
