A little marina excitement

We're bummed to miss this year's gathering, but that's not to say there wasn't some excitement at home.

I got a call from a friend yesterday telling me there was a fire near our boat and I should go check on it. Sure enough there were fire trucks everywhere 4-5 boats smoldering and a whole bunch of stories flying around. The fire was on the next dock over, but all of the boats south of me were covered in soot. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but it was a little too close for comfort. Time to make sure the insurance is up to date.

There is some good drone video of the fire and the response on the King5tv website. Scary stuff. Our friends were aboard their boat cooking crab when the whole thing started.

It was great to meet you all! We had a blast in Langley. The sail back to Seattle, while starting slow gave us a nice spin run home from the whidbey island head. Ava got a chance to learn spinnaker rigging and sheeting without the nail biting experience of gusty winds!

cheers,
-P
