Bob's plan for Friday was to end the day in Lawrence Cove, coincidentally where Another Adventure were visiting friends, but as it is only a very short hop from Indian Creek the objective for the day was to try out Liberty's new cruising chute. I promoted Moorglade to Bells Creek and left her at anchor there while joining Liberty for a sail in the bay to try out the new sail. It was a very enjoyable trip, for once I had no responsibility and the new sail set well. We returned to Moorglade and sailed together to Lawrence Cove where once again Bob saved me the trouble of anchoring as I rafted alongside. Putting the hook down is little trouble, but cleaning off the very gloopy mud when it comes up in the morning is a real chore if, like me, you do not have a washdown pump.
Another Adventure was still at their friends dock and in the morning we went over to say goodbye as they were heading up the Potomac to Washington DC and was planning to see DC by car when Kay rejoins the cruise.
