You'll be the only boat in the anchorage and some dude will want to come in late and cozy up to you like they know you. Why? I don't get this behavior. Since we left WA state behind, that has not happened. One time it almost did, but I gave 'the look', mentioned the amount of chain we had out, and the guy gracefully moved back to a reasonable place. All was well. I didn't even have to get the wings out. It feels like those anchorages where you cruise are crowded. Is this just my perception? Oh, and I'm still not crazy about 20 knot winds. I will tolerate them, but it's not a good day when I have to.

I figure it's the sleep deprivation affecting my brain somehow so that it doesn't realized it should be scared and/or annoyed at stuff that happens.The Cynical Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11047491682363507834noreply@blogger.com
