Anacortes to LA Day 9 Lay day for the boys

Went over banking found almost $4000 in meals, parts, fuel, and moorage. This was getting concerning in addition to the extra time this was taking so I called the owner and caught up on payment. This is always hard when people buy a boat and have a plan for the cost of everything and things cost more then what they allocated for it and all before they have had the opportunity to enjoy the boat at all. One good thing that was coming out of all this tribulation was that Har Rai was beginning to doubt the prospect of boat ownership. He had hired me prior to this trip to look at some boats with him and was posed to buy a boat to take his family out and share his love of sailing on.

Met up with a rock star crabber friend of mine Capt Lars and later in the day he showed this his boat just two boats down from our slip.

Told us about lost pots and the scams of the game how crabbers steal from other people pots.  

Electrician comes back to install the alternator that was picked by Tom’s old friend Mary when she met up with her friend in Olympia after her friend came from Everett who picked up the Alternator at fisheries we put on will call.

It takes a village and contacts in every port is a god send.

Alternator in by 18:00 OT for Xian the electrician.



Soft shackle making class was a good use of down time.

I check in with owner.
