Dave & Peggy have been showing us around. After we moored on the 6th, they showed us the harbor via dinghy, and we tied up at a dinghy dock to take a walk. At the end of the street past Cap’n Jacks, Dave wanted us to see the two triangular range finders that mariners line up on approach in order to locate the center of the narrow channel. They are even lighted; well, they’re outlined with strings of small LEDs, like Christmas lights. If only we’d known they were there. LOL Kidding. Thankfully, we have a fancy electronic chart plotter and two different tablets running backup apps to navigate the channel! Walking among the pretty houses, I can’t wait to walk the beach. It’s empty? Where is everyone? We can’t possibly be the only beachcombers around here.
On Friday, they rented a golfcart to show us more of the island. Remember: Drive on the left. Drive on the left.
Today is really overcast grey and windy, so now that we’ve caught up with the blog, we are going to focus on chores – housework & basic engine room stuff – before enjoying the sunset this evening.
