Whites Bay to Henderson to Sackets

We had a pleasant night at Whites Bay.  We swam.  Brunched on Grill Cheese. 

We weighed anchor and motored to Henderson Bay YC.  The approach was through a mooring field.  There was a marked channel that I had not seen.  I followed the instructions in the Ports Guide and ended up a the wrong dock.  I went for the correct dock.  The winds were from the south and the north side of the dock was occupied.  I had problems approching the south side and the wind blew me off.  I reversed and the engine stopped.  I though I had hit a rock.  The kayak tether had got caught in the propeller shaft.  I dropped the anchor at the strong suggestion of someone at the dock.
