At Joan's suggestion, I'm reversing the order of the photos
to put the most recent at the top - same order as the blog. I'll be leaving what is there now "as
is" till some later date.
Todays photos are of Captain Phil doing his laundry on the
dock and a short video pan of the marina. Tom left to fly home an hour
ago. We will miss him. We have finish several boat projects this
morning - patching a tear near the head of the yankee jib, swapping anchor
chains to put the 100' chain on the number 2 (starboard) anchor. The number 2 is a delta that holds better
than the number 1 (CQR). We will be
leaving (cab ride) to go provision next.
Will likely be out of any kind of cell/wifi range for the next 2 to 3
days. For those back home weathering
the snow, ice, and cold, I'm sitting here on the Pintita sweating profusely in
the AC. I know it's hard to
imagine.
If you click on this link and zoom out and in, I think you will
be able to see where we are now (Turtle Cove Marina in Turtle Cove).
Ron I see the R I B way up on the davits behind the boat. Do you travel off shore with it on the davits? or do you flip it on the fore deck & lash it down? I hope the latter. I have seen vessels your size or larger get pooped & fill the dink with water only to have it break loose from the davits in huge following seas.
