The Selene rendezvous is complete. There were 39 Selene Trawlers in attendance. The rendezvous at Roche Harbor was well attended and we were able to see how many of the other owners had customized their vessels. We always pick up new ideas. Weather was variable, with everything from sun to intense rain, but we had a great time in spite of the showers, and even the power failure on the docks.
From the picture, you can see we launched the tender. Good news and bad news! The tender ran well, but the davit developed a problem in luffing down. We got the tender back on board, and Steelhead Cranes will be up on Friday, cutting it close, to make repairs.
On the way back to Anacortes, after the rendezvous, we put an additional 808 gallons of fuel on board, bringing the total to about 1450 gallons for the trip North.
Today, Wednesday, we transitioned up to Anacortes and loaded the fishing gear and crab pots for the trip. The weather is clearing here in Anacortes, and Spirit is nearly ready for departure! We can still see the cove stripe, so we have a little room for more supplies, but not much.
Our son Cameron will be living at the house and taking care of things in Bellevue while we are gone, so that there is always somebody at home.
Just the davit repair and Bon Voyage party to go!
