Well, this is an additional post since the last one did something odd and I can’t seem to fix it from here.  Funky internets connection.  Anyway, hopefully here’s what we were hoping to add:

Feels good to be heading out.

Out the bridge for the next six months. Back to Fiji.

Feels great to get going again although sad to leave our friends.

Wonderful to be at anchor in Urquarts for the night.  I have a love/hate relationship with this place.  It’s so lovely, but it’s the one place in the world (so far) that I just can’t get our (CQR) anchor to set.  It’s fairly secure, but if the wind comes up it WILL drag.  I have 120 feet out for 20 feet of depth for a ration of 6:1 but it just won’t set.  I can feel it bump along the shale bottom.  Oh well.  It’s supposed to be a calm night and I’ve set an anchor alarm.  It will wake us up when the tide changes and we turn the other way, but sometimes  that’s the price we pay.

Tomorrow – Barrier Island and some red snapper fishin’!
