The bay this morning dropped to just 5 boats in it and now tere are only 10. We did wonder if White Bay
would be as empty so we could go to Soggy Bottom bar. As it happened we could have gone if full got back here and got a mooring ball easily.
Not a particularly sunny day here or warm as I planned to go and scrub port side of hull this morning. Never ventured in the water until after lunch, a jam sandwich. John also went in to finish starboard and propeller. Anode found particularly corroded less than 30% left. Found bits to replace it. Taking old one off dropped it and the screw to retain it. 11m of water and very murky no chance to find them. No suitabl screw in those carried aboard so will be without an anode for a few days. Suspect 1st chance to get spares might be Easter Sunday or Monday but suspect chandlery will be closed to Tuesday, 1st day of racing. Screw required for technically minded M8x20 allen head, not particularly common so a bit of luck required for chandlery to stock it.
Tomorrow we plan to sail 15 miles to Cooper Island
