Finally cast off from Gocek en route to the west. First stop Kapi Creek.
The second photo is the view from the barber's chair, where the skipper had the usual close shave and haircut. No need for a comb for a few weeks.
The forecast is reasonably gentle for the next few days, picking up to F4-5 at the end of tomorrow's trip, but unfortunately thunderstorms seem to be everywhere.
Yesterday afternoon's cleanup had a wonderful Buster Keaton moment. I coiled the hose on the pontoon, and picked up the hose and the deck brush to stow them on board. As I was about to step on board I noticed that only one of my sandals was still on the pontoon. I guessed I had swept it into the water while dragging the hose, so looked carefully in the gap between boat and dock. No sign. I looked all round the immediate pontoon behind KJ. Still just one sandal. I thought it had gone, then as I moved to the boat, realised it was dangling from the shaft of the brush behind my back. Glad nobody filmed it.
