Very short trip today, 3.5 miles. It was a little tricky getting into the anchorage as there were rocks and shallows. There were turns to port and starboard to evade the shallows. Had to put a lot of faith in the GPS, and hoped that someone had not forgotten to chart a rock. We made it safely and anchored with 3 other boats. The anchorage is situated between Turtle Island, Chalk Island, Willis Island, Walsh Island, Dodd Island, and is called Joes Bay. As of this writing 2 of the boats have left but we now have 4 other boats with us. It is a large area and plenty of room. During the day groups of kayakers wound weave their way around the islands and then leave. Although one group is camping along the shore some distance from us.
The weather today has been cold with temps in the high 50's and wind 10-15 knots. Skies have been cloudy all day with light rain. We stayed inside and read books. May stay here one more day, but we will see how things look in the morning.
