Another long dark night followed by a gloomy morning.  We check in on the radio net.  Lots of boats are already anchored in Turtle Bay.  There is to be a discussion of the party and activities in Turtle Bay on the VHF radio this afternoon but we are too far out of range to hear it.  Around noon we turn on the engine  and finally make it into the bay and anchor about 6:00, sunset.

We have finished the first leg!  Dinner is fresh mackerel, Trader Joe’s cornbread and champagne. 

So here we are a lot has settled down, a lot still to learn.  This business of not being able to hold the course when the wind is downwind has got to be sorted out.  Logging our position every hour has gotten routine.  Enough food has been eaten that there is starting to be room in the cupboards although there is still too much stuff floating around the cabin.Despite alot of ups and downs, we are learning again how to work and live together. 

Bed time.
