                | Anchor alarm went off during the night, not because we 
moved but the tablet for some reason had lost the GPS signal for a few minutes. 
Reset and all good. John been for a swim again today and checked anchor not 
moved since yesterdays inspection. On his swim today John also cleaned the rudder of 
barnacles, just a few, and wiped the slime off. Hull has a few on it and will be 
removed over the next few days at anchor. We keep seeing turtles coming to the 
surface to breath then back down to the bottom. A few boats have left the area so not as crowded around 
us and 2 have arrived and have quarantine flags up so we will still have company 
when the Fisheries department start the laying of buoys in the area 
tomorrow. In the morning we need to be efficient to ensure we are 
ashore for 9 a.m. for a Covid test. Dinghy aft section has deflated a little 
hopefully the reason that the inflation point cap was not put on properly 
before. We will take pump in case more serious leak at hand. No doubt another bottle Rum Punch 
later. |
