Company!

Yesterday, SV Anna Caroline, a Dutch boat, arrived and join us for drinks. Today, SV Karma Waters, an Aussie boat, arrived. We are all here in the rain and wind, rafted together with multiple shorelines, waiting for weather windows to go north or south.

Janika and Viktor have invited all of us over for onion soup this evening. We are bringing brownies. Our last three eggs from Puerto Eden had gone bad, but I was able to borrowed an egg from Janika.

It is great to meet some new folks, exchange information and conversation.

It continues to rain. The white caps that we could see just across the bay before are building and now circling around to our anchorage and causing the boats to pitch and pull against the shore lines and anchor chains. The wind gusts to 29 knots, whistling in the rigging and the boats roll side to side from the gusts. Last night there was hail pounding on the hatch above our bed. We are glad we decided to stay but hope the low will pass soon so we may continue toward Puerto Williams.
