Day 4 in Fort Bragg

We spent the day touring around Fort Bragg on our bikes and went over to Tommy's Marine Service shop. We bought more duct tape, bungee cords, chandlery items, marine silicone, hose everything a good cruiser needs. Tommy was very helpful and has a good assortment of items for boaters. We spent the rest of the day getting Numoon ready for Cape Mendocino, which meant taking down all the eisenglass enclosures and the bimini. We knew from Point Reyes that all that canvas was more windage that simply complicated her handling in rough seas. I will update this post with pictures of NuMoon stripped down. Well tomorrow, Thursday 5/15 we will make another attempt at heading up to Eureka. Again we will be up at 4-4:30am to leave the channel by 5am, about first light. That will allows us to get to Eureka by 6:30 or 7:30pm, still have day light and enter Hunboldt channel on a flood tide. So good night to all and safe travel.
