Having decided to remain here at the marina rather than push on to Pancake Creek and get stuck there for a few days, things have been very quiet onboard. It has been an ideal day to get some essential work done on the boat - fitting tachos to the outboards, spicing the rope rode to the main anchor chain (thank you Pete!), replacing the joker valve in the heads and trying to figure out how fit a water pump for the seawater deck wash system. That will be a job for tomorrow!
Now - onto the main news story for the day. The marina shares the site with a major seafood processor and the fishing boats tie up next to us. Tonight we ordered a seafood platter for dinner (two actually). It was magnificent - fresh prawns, bugs, smoked salmon (steaks!) and spanner crabs. Super fresh and delicious! Life is tough in the slow lane!
