Single handed to Grande Anse

I got up early had breakfast at Cafe Marler and worked to clean up the club locker, built a step for Bellum dock and fixed the hose holder from Norm.

Winds were supposed to be light but would be showed 6 knots Sunday and I was in need of a sail.

Took off at 4 and tried to sail to the first buoy, then motored to the gut and then sailed to the Sandbars.  Winds were still good so I waved hi to Tara II and Dissidence and continued to Grand Anse.

Spent the night there with 3 power boats rafted far away.  Supper was a can of chilli.  Went to bed about 10 and got up at 7. 


In the morning, Sailflow said winds were going to die in the morning so I pulled the anchor and sailed for about 4 hours in light to medium winds.  I pretty much had the lake to myself and a Mirage 27.



Came back to the club and refuelled and pumped out.  Washed the deck and cockpit.  Went for a swim. Rode back to moms for supper.
