Saturday sail and joined Annual Regatta.

We got up about 9 AM had bacon and egg breakfast. 

Set out just to sail around.  Sunday was supposed to be a write-off weather-wise.

Tried to call Andre by DSC, but we were not successful.  But we could reach her by VHF.

Took some pictures of second race of  the Annual regatta.  We chased a few boats around taking pictures. 

We decided to race the third race.  We did okay but not sure of our position due to racing secretary issues.  Probably 3rd out of 6 boats.  Results to come.

On our way back, we saw Zobra come out  near mid-channel.  Tried to radio them via DSC.  It worked but the radio died as we replied.  We had left the anchor light on for 20 hours and that killed the deep cycle battery (No. 1).   We switched to battery No 2 and started the engine and tried a single handed approach into my dock.  There were too many people watching so we did not try the single handed docking.

Washed the boat and charged the batteries.

Sunday was rainy and we did Ikea.
