0505-Cloudy, calm, a smokey haze that looks like fog. 57F/50F.
0715-Study time finished. Verses for today: "These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules."
Time to make breakfast. 67F/55F. High thin clouds, some sun shining through.
0840-After breakfast I pulled the dinghy up to charge the outboard and sponged out some water from rain last evening. Replaced the leader and lure on my rod. I may take a morning cruise with the dinghy. 68F/58F. Everything in the dinghy is wet! Waiting for it to dry out some in the sun.
0915-Departed on a dinghy cruise to search for wildlife and to check out campsites along the way.
Fishing was a bust! Tangled my line again. (Later during a repair effort I discovered old line wrapped around the base of the spool which was causing all my problems.)
Ran into a couple of fishermen and said hi. They were at the entrance to the little protected bay to my east that I was going to check for wildlife. Turned out it was full of cabins!
1020-Returned to the boat and started stowing away gear for loading tomorrow. Removed the outboard and all camera and phone mounts.
1200-Heated up leftover pizza and enjoyed a cold beer with it.
Trimmed my beard then set up the shower to get cleaned up. The shower basin drain pump failed but I was able to lift the base and dump the water fairly easily so I will not replace the failed pump. Continued to stow more gear.
1435-Finished putting away the shower after drying. Then stowed the hot water heater. Took a break and had a cold glass of white wine.
Need to marinated chicken in teriyaki sauce for grilled chicken dinner.
1520-Stowed the forward Bimini and considered starting the grill for dinner.
1600-Dinner was grilled chicken teriyaki, potatoes, salad, rolls, and white wine. Tasty!
Washed dishes to minimize work tomorrow.
1800-Went ashore with my shore bag and started a fire.
2115-Returned to the boat to get some sleep. Alarm set for 0500.
