It was a morning of frenzied activity after the Pirate Party at Anacortes Marina last night. Despite that Jacintha managed to set up her art and tattoo stall. Unfortunately all the pirates were on their boats nursing their sore heads from too much grog the night before . So business was sloooow.

The men were busy readying the boat for the noon departure. Last minute things were stowed away, some things were taken off the boat and the solar panels and jack lines installed.

Then it was time to have a photo and a boatside toast to Neptune/Poseidon…..

…then it was finally time for Jim to cut the lines to the dock! And off they went!
