At last -



We spent two wonderful nights on Honeymoon Point on the northwest corner of Aubrey Island (Burnt Island to the locals). Had no mechanical issues whatsoever and we were able to relax and enjoy the outing. The second night we were wakened by the wind (unusual in the middle of the night) which forewarned us of an approaching thunderstorm. We just had time to close the hatches and zip the zippers before it began to rain. On Friday we came to town for a pump-out and picked up Newfoundland cousins and m-in-law and went back out for an onboard lunch. Can't make any assumptions about every anchoring situation but the claw anchor sure grabbed better than the Danforth ever did. I sneaked a peek at the GPS every once in a while and we sat in exactly the same spot the whole time we were hooked.

Pretty hard to find a sunrise prettier than this:
