In the dark with no lights on the fuel gauge we didn&#8217;t know until the engine stopped. We had been motor sailing to make up time. So now we sailed at a slower speed, while Tony and I changed over the tanks and primed the engine. Unfortunately a Fuel filter had blocked at the same time. It took a couple of minutes to figure that out. With the filter changed the motor started and we were back to motor sailing. It was only for another couple of hours, then the wind picked up enough to just sail.<br \/>\nAbout 8am Iris and I went out on deck and unreefed the main sail. Back inside the cockpit and we the put out the big head sail.
