Life in the Boatyard begins

Chatted with Pam & Glen (Blue Pearl) and met Sid (Quest) who also has an Island Packet. He lives across the sound from Pam & Glen and was thinking about crossing with Blue Pearl this year. Checked in the marina office again with Ann to see about the Thanksgiving Gala they have here and found out that they were able to move us to the working yard tomorrow! Yay!

Met Jon & Arline from Kasidah (a very lovely Ericson 36C) then unloaded some stuff from the car. When it got too hot we headed to Mack Sails (also a rigging place) to see if they could fix us up with some replacement lifelines, picked up some stuff from a marine for Pam & Glen, then hit Sam’s Club and back to the boatyard. We used Glen’s GPS to find the places and I’d forgotten how nice it is to have one.

Drinks over on Blue Pearl and a light salad/chicken dinner with champagne to celebrate another year of successful cruising with friends. Wonderful time with them, Sid and Eric (Summertime) the boat next to Pearl.
