morning of the fourth day at Shark River, NJ

Ed had to leave us this morning to get back to work so there would only be two of us from here on. There would be little or no wind all of the coming day and we motored and motor-sailed all the way to Atlantic City, continuing to have engine problems, particularly on the port tack—which struck us as rather odd. We got to Atlantic City that night and stayed two days as we tried to find a decent mechanic on a long weekend. We finally found one who not only fixed the engine problem (it was air in the suction part of the fuel delivery system) but put in a new bilge pump and told us that all the wiring work done in Guilford was so incompetently done that the circuits were more out of code than they had been to start with. Previously, only the AC circuits had been out of compliance but they had been rewired so that both the AC and DC circuits were out of compliance.
