Weather report was right on, with great wind building through the night to 25 – 30 knots. With our five neighbors, we are snug in our mooring field, and no one is going anywhere, as the seas right outside are running 7 – 9 feet. Between the wind and the current, it’s a rollicking ride, but the sun is shining brightly and we are safely here. Big pot of bean soup on the stove. Will wait for the weather to calm before embarking.
Our boat has become a favorite shady spot for a school of about a dozen horse-eyed jacks, each about two feet long with bug eyes and bright yellow tails. They swim along in our shadow, just keeping even with the current. Alas, there is a “no take” rule in the park, so we just look, don’t catch!
Heard on the radio that a boat in the north mooring field had lost hold of its mooring during the blow. Apparently, several adjacent boaters helped them to resecure to the mooring. Glad we were safe and secure.
