Mike was awake first, he started the generator to get the batteries charged up. He made coffee as well. Once the girls were awake and ready we started up the engines and Jen pulled up the anchor. Little Shark is a great anchorage, deep with a sandy bottom. Super quiet and nicely protected.
It was another perfect day out on the water. Jen and autopilot did most of the driving today. Mike did some as well. Lots of crab pots to dodge, which requires focus but isn’t too hard to spot them on a calm day. As we cruised we listened to music, including a new favorite. (Link below)
We made it to Faro Blanco around 2:00. Jen called over the radio to get our slip assignment and directions to get into the marina. It’s important to always ask about shallow spots and if there is any special directions to be aware of. Mike did a great job getting the boat docked! We seem to keep getting slips that are kinda difficult to get into and this was was no exception, but Mike did great!!
We went for a walk around the marina, Harley got to go with. He loved getting to explore some grass after being anchored out for the last two nights. We met a super nice couple on a Great Harbor, Sadie Bell. They are in the planning stage of their loop. They have two beautiful Golden Retrievers, Sadie and Puzzle. We learned that every night at 5:00, weather permitting there is docktails at the marina.
When 5:00 rolled around we made some drinks and walked on over. The boaters here at Faro Blanco are so nice! We loved getting to chat with everyone and look forward to getting to know them more.
Mike made dinner, rice with sausage, shrimp, and pineapple… very yummy.
