Rain, beginning long before dawn, and lasting until almost noon. But clearing in the afternoon, or appearing to, so we took Heliotrope out for an hors d'ouvere crusise, past Gooseberry, in a gentle breeze, just jib and mizzen, but still moving at 4 to 5 knots. Coming back in we met up with Wolf in his Catalina 22 and Patrick in his Windrider, and the three of us owned the Bay. Back in the marina, as we secured to the dock and grabbed our gear, the rain came again (but only briefly).

Pink, and dog, checking out the water and merganser poop levels.
