Georgetown, The Net

 

We are up at 6am. We listen to the morning VHF net at 8:00am for Georgetown cruisers, to get the latest local cruiser news and events. This week is the annual cruisers regatta, with event schedule each day. Even without the Regatta, there are plenty of events each day. My goal was to request a need for an impeller for our Rainman. water maker. I do not get any responses. I later posted a more detailed request on the Georgetown Facebook page.

I contact a couple marinas here in Georgetown and Long Island with no luck. Check a couple place ashore in town with no success. We check out the Exuma Market and they have a mail-boat delivery coming in tomorrow, they are lacking a lot of items they normally have.

Linda and I head over to “Peace & Plenty” a local hotel and restaurant for lunch which over looks the Georgetown harbor.

When we get back to our boat, we see that Mark & Karen have arrived and are anchored near us. We put groceries away, shower and head to the “Chat and Chill” on Elizabeth Island which form the eastern side of the miles long Georgetown harbor. We expect it to be crowded, but strangely have the place almost to ourselves. They have great BBS ribs. We ride back in the twilight to our boat, grab a couple drinks and head to “Sea Vu Play” for cards.
