It turned out to be a very pleasant night. The squall never materialized and the winds were calm. It was a cool night, perfect for sleeping.
Greg had problem getting my anchors up and mooring undone. We headed off for Collins Inlet.
The ride today, again across part of the bay, was a bit windier and rockier. Not very bad though, and not too long.
We were rafted with Crawdad by noontime in Mill Lake, which is off Collins Inlet. Beautiful spot!

They went exploring in the dinghy and left us alone again. They were back pretty soon because they were getting a bit damp from the windblown spray.
Hope this wind calms down some!

It was raining this morning and there was a threat of high wind. There was debate about whether or not to move to the anchorage that had been chosen. The sun came out, the wind quieted and off we went.
I was in the lead and we were heading to the Bustard Islands to anchor in Bustard Island Harbor. It was a good ride. We were outside in the bay for a bit and it was a bit rocky, but not too bad.
We got in at 12:45 PM and I got to med-moor for the 1st time! Very different and exciting! Greg anchored me and then took a long line off my stern to shore and tied it around a tree. Because we were near rocks and there was squall warning, he also put a second anchor on my starboard side.

Nothing had occurred by dinnertime, so everybody ate together on my bridge. Pretty sunset!
