Booth Bay

Overnight we arranged to meet Cavara at Booth Bay - a 25 mile run for us, a 44 mile run for them. They had given up on getting fuel and water in Camden. So we took it easy and enjoyed a cooked breakfast, and did not drop the ball till about 9 AM. Lo and behold, we saw Cavara on the radar soon after pulling out of the harbor. They had given up on getting fuel in Camden and left early in the AM. Visibility was decent and we arrived in Booth Bay about 2 PM.

We dropped the dinghy and went into town. It was another busy vacation place. Lots of restaurants, tour boats, hotels, tee shirt places etc. We liked it, but felt sorry for the dirt dwellers, trying to park their SUVs and entertain the kids.

A good photo of the catholic church!

Because dock space is so valuable for the tourists, the lobster people pile up their traps on unlighted floats




Our mooring field was associated with a nice yachting club on the other side of the bay. Barb and Don needed to do their washing so had gone into the club. We buzzed back to the Club to discuss plans - they were set up in the bar as they waited for the machines. They told us they would be busy until 8 PM so we headed back to town and had dinner in a Chinese joint - good tucker!
