Jenny, Sandra , Doug and Morgan went for an early morning walk up to the Boatworks ( another marina and hardstand) before breaky and came across one of the pirate boats currently being used in the latest Pirates of The Caribbean movie. It was hauled out for some work and also to be stored when it wasn’t being used,it was very authentic looking.

We also came across John chatting to Andrew Laycock from Khancoban, Andrew was on his way to Darwin and called in for a look at the show and came across John strolling along. (small world)                      Pirate photos courtesy of Sandra Jenkins

Back to the boat and Deb and Wayne had arrived so we headed up to the marina cafe for breaky in a sunny sheltered spot overlooking the water. After breaky we caught the marine rescue boat to Sanctuary Cove as they had a courtesy boat service happening for a $10 fee. Happy to donate my money to marine rescue.

The boat show was smaller than usual as some of the exhibitors were split between the two sites of expo at GCCM and SC.

Still a good day was had by all, Friz and Tracey ordered all of their electrics for their boat that they are refurbishing, Deb and Wayne bought polish for theirs and I bought books, polish and a gizmo(Seabung) for changing the seacocks whilst in the water.

Back to O’vive where we sat  down to takeaway Indian from Randhawas at Hope Island which was delivered for  $6.95. How cheap was the delivery and when talking to the driver he uses his own car and gets $3 of the 7. Nick Jenkins came to tea and everyone agreed it was excellent Indian. It was a little too hot for me though.

There was quite a bit of frivolity after dinner but everyone except Friz and Wayne had turned in by 10:30, they stayed up for a bullshit session and more rum.
