Well started great, had friends over for breakfast,went and rented a car to go to minnies,got back to the boat to get carol,started out an then it happened,a fellow comes up in his dinghy an very nicely lets us know the harbor police made a mistake and rented out his mooring balls to us,so we get back aboard plumas fire up and are told where to go, a short trip going away from car we fined the spot ease up to the first ball and ut o Plumas is not going right her nose is pointed into the wind but when we attach she goes sideways over the line between the balls,hangs up,goes up against a powerboat of all things an there we are,sheeesh some very nice folks come over in there dinghy and between our`s an there dinghy were free! seems there was a outbound tide in shallow water an there in was the problem,so off to the next bouy we are told to head to,hmmmm no rope between them,cant reach ring, so off to the anchorage area drop anchor,go get a Happy Hooker.............no guy`s the kind you use to hookup to a ring! GET ONE IF YOU EVER NEED TO GRAB A BOUY! west marine had one.
When I got back Carol had become settled I attached the hooker to a pole an off to the bouy,click it was done,settled down met some nice folks an life was good again.
