Carlos and Marijke - Our Guardian Angels


Today this friendly cruising couple saved our bacon. We met Carlos and Marijke a little over a month ago at Marina del Rey. Since then we've stayed in touch with them and met them in common ports to share wine and conversation. This couple has MILES and YEARS under their keel; they will forget more about cruising than we'll ever know. And they came to our rescue today. Our engine was over-heating when we were preparing to leave; we got them out of bed at 7:00 and Carlos immediately came to our boat and spent the day trouble-shooting with us. He solved our over-heating problem and we are forever grateful for having this fun cruising couple in our lives!
