Hop-o-Nose

Wake up to a very windy day. Gusts to 30 mph. Hop-o-Nose is going to try to raise some masts today.

Our mast deck light got clobbered at Champlain Marina when they took our mast down. I ordered a replacement from Defender Marine just before we left, from the same vendor. Turns out the new one is not very good, so I decide to fix the old one. Another quick trip up the hill to Lowes to get a replacement light bulb. I find an LED one that is exactly what I want.

A smaller boat next to us leaves to head to the lift at Hop-o-Nose to install his mast. I help Alain and Diana off the dock as they motor to the lift to install their new radar before putting their mast up after ours. An hour later we motor up the creek for our turn. Not too thrilled dealing with all this wind. By the time we are in position Sean decides to hold off since they had a lot of trouble with the mast on the smaller sailboat. That is the only mast going up today. Guess where we are having dinner tonight. Tonight’s special, Bake Stuff Haddock.
