On Saturday we stayed the day and another
night on a mooring buoy belonging to the Hotel with thermal springs
Termas de Puyuhuapi. We ate ashore and it made a change to be pampered.
Sunday we were on our way again getting to Bahia Anihue which the Pilot book
informed us was the home of Alan Szydlowski who was a lynch pin of the
SSB Patagonian Cruising Net. The Pilot Book said "Be assured of a warm
welcome". Unfortunately he sold up two years ago! There was no one to welcome
us. However it was an excellent anchorage and we slept peacefully.Today we
sailed - yes- sailed across to the Island of Chiloe and anchored in the
fishing port of Quellon.This is a town of 15000 people and we found a Banco
Automatic and a Supermarket. We topped up with Pesos and did a big shop to
replenish the provisions which were getting low / non existant! Only 100nmiles
to Puerto Montt!!
