CS34 Navy Islands back to Trident

Up a little after 7am, Rita was up first:

Notice how the boat had swung 180 degrees:

We were now is 6.5 ft of water; no problem!

Off to Mulcaster for Shadow:

We went for a long dingy ride around Downie Island.

...and back to Still Time:

Notice how the anchor ball showing that the anchor is underneath the stern.
The anchor chain was holding the boat on the bottom.

The anchor and chain was buried in the weeds on the bottom.

We did some more paddle boarding and swimming:

After lunch, we hoisted the main before hoisting anchor.

We said hello to Shawn and Nancy on their new georgeous Jeanneau 410 called Stealing Summer:

Notice the StarLink dish on the bow!

We motored sailed North to Ivy Lea club, before heading down the main channel to Endymion and Camelot Islands.  

As we got closer to the US border, we notice just ton of motor boat traffic.  Big cruisers, bow riders, cabin cruisers, cigarette boats, and SeaDoos.  Noisy and lots of wake!

The 8-10 knots of breeze was pretty much on the nose, so we just motor sailed with the main.

How foolish is this:

The anchorages and mooring balls off Endymion and Camelot we jammed full of boats and people.

The weather was forecasted to turn with lots of rain and risk of thunderstorms overnight.

We decided to head back to home base Trident.
