Georgetown Harbour

Made it to Georgetown harbour this afternoon. Thought we would never make it. The current was against us for all but the last 12 miles. Our speed picked up and so did our attitudes. The three amigos are still together but no one wants to leave their boat tonight.

The harbour is crowded. All the free mooring balls folks raved about are gone. We had to anchor close to existing mostly derelict boats. If we don't go bump in the night it will be worth it.

Jim and Barb and Craig and Dovie have never been here before. Karen will give the tour tomorrow. We like Georgetown.

The ride through the Waccama was very nice. Very little traffic but one dim bulb on a sport fisher went by at speed spreading a 4 foot bow wave. What an ass hole!! Rocked our world.

Lots to see in the harbour this afternoon. Looking forward to walking the streets tomorrow and at least buying some fresh fish. The fish market is right off our beam here.

I suspect we will stay here through Sunday. It's that kind of place.
