Man-o-War

Mark made reservations at Man-o-War Marina for three days, assuming Hopetown would be full for the next front coming through. Mark and Karen leave around 7:15 to get ahead of what looked like and approaching squall. We stay put and wait for it to pass, which it does after a short down pour. Mark and Karen get hit while under motor on the deep water route north. We take the much shorter shallow water route north to Hopetown, but find no moorings available, but do find “Minx”, friends, Jay & Tanya’s boat on a mooring. I assumed they were there from Marine Traffic.com which tracks AIS transponders. We give up and head 5 miles north to Man-o-War.
 

Man-o-War Harbor

We are docked by 11:30am and have lunch at the Dock & Dine at the marina. Then we go for a short walk through the town ending at the food market. Late afternoon we start to get isolated showers and wind so I start putting up part of our cockpit enclosure. We play cards in the evening on our boat. Check the dock lines to get ready for predicted north winds.
