We are still in Harderwijk. The hose we need wasn't in stock so we are waiting for one to arrive. Originally we expected it today, but now we are told tomorrow. The local mechanic has said that the reason for the problem was that the belt for the water pump came off. This was because the two ends aren't lined up, so they will add something to align them so we shouldn't have the problem in the future. We have had our project manager and carpenter visit us last night and we are feeling more confident with what we will do. The carpenter is coming back tomorrow with the steel man to look behind the panels and work out what can be done. We also will be meeting with the electrician on Monday evening.
We tried to open a bank account but were told that, as our permanent address is not in the EU it cannot be done at the moment. We have been using our bikes a bit to go to the town of Harderwijk about 3 kms away, and today we cycled down to Zeewolde which is 8kms away. Moondance is moored up alongside Sebastian which is a 27m barge. Normally Moondance is one of the largest boat in the marina, but Sebastian makes her look small.

That's annoying. Hope you manage to get to Elburg, it's a pretty town. Climb the church tower for a good view of the town and the haven.
