I got up at 0700 and made coffee. The wind was already blowing 20 to 30 mph. Charlie knocked on the boat and asked if I wanted to ride with him to pick up some fuel. I needed to buy gasoline for the generator and a small amount of diesel to fill the Racor after changing the filter. We had to drive nearly to Elizabeth City to find a service station that sold both gasoline and diesel. When we got back, I filled the Racor with diesel and bled the fuel lines on the Kohler generator. The generator started immediately, thank goodness.
We invited our friends from yesterday plus Tom and Linda who own Frances Ray, the trawler we are to which we are rafted, and Dick on a double ended sailboat, Tarwathie, at the dock behind us, for cocktails and snacks at 1700 on Seascape. We had lots of fun talking about boats, cruising, our lives and even a little politics.
