Never a dull moment

Reading about the experiences of others is very relaxing, but I can surely imagine the stress aboard Indy when they tried to transit the Panama canal.

The Panama canal is the busiest harbor in the world and not for the light hearted, not a great place not to have an engine. Fortunately, Indy was moving with the gib alone at 6kts. WE anchored near Shelter Bay, I served dinner and we all just rehashed the evenings experience. I then called our agent to find out what was in the diesel we knew at that point it had to be the fuel. I could hear him talking to the guy that gave it to us and he came back and said, "Lady, that was not diesel it was gasoline!!!!". I then thought I was going to throw up. My reaction was pretty colorful and he hung up on me...ugh!!!
