... lost both rounds, boy were the other skaters really good. We watched the winners, and saw the prizes being handed out. There was 300 dollars first place, 150 second, and 50 dollars in third place. Everyone got something. The Volcom Marketer gave us a big Volcom sticker to put on our RV, which we neglectfully should have brought to the competition to hype up Josh. Next one, we're ...

... the Creek, we proceeded on a roller coaster run with main and jib wing and wing. We surfed southbound at 15+ kts with top speed seen 15.5, frequently over 13 kts downwind.<br><br>We anchored in Willoughby Harbor. Dave left the boat on October 26 for appointments in Arlington. Donna stayed on the boat. It was terribly rainy throughout this period. Dave returned on the 28th. This would be our final week before departure to the Bahamas. Dave worked on the ...

... being that I was getting out of shape!! Holy COW!! That was a nice wakeup call, even though Josh is the supported athlete.<br><br> I need to find ways to keep in shape while Josh is "working". In the 3rd week of October, a group of ladies who were first time campers, had a long board they didn't want, that they found, gave it to us, and it seems the perfect device for me to work my craft on, and get my skate legs back. I ...

... were there and out went the lines. The mate was on his toes as he quickly set up 6 rigs. We were thinking we would be trolling for a half hour or more before we saw any action but that wasn't the case. To everybody's surprise the first rig went off just as the mate finished letting out the last line. And the reel was screaming too, we ...

... whether into skating or not, would appreciate. <br><br> Josh wasn't worried, he is eager to go for the next competition coming up on Saturday October 24th. The competition will be hosted by Hotline Surfboard, one of Josh's former store sponsor when he was a 13 yo, living in Virginia Beach back in the dayz. Hotline is offering cash prizes and if the WRV bash was any indication, the Hotline competition will be a blast for Josh. We'll ...

... this trip. Next entry will be about this weekend. Nervous energy abound. Wave Riding Vehicles hosts this coming competition. Whooo... Oh shoot, I almost forgot to add, we discgolfed at the Bay Park near our camp ground, and played 18 holes. This was a sweeeet course, lots of trees, dual difficulty levels, and double the baskets one for standard, and one for experts. Really smooth course, a lot of our disc ...

... its flow rate. After the housing replacement, all tested out fine.<br><br>Dave placed a service call for our refrigeration due to the repetition of a problem we experienced two years ago when the refrigeration failed to chill. We just weren&#8217;t willing any longer to trust its reliability, which would be critical for successful long-term cruising. At the recommendation of the manufacturer and based on feedback from other Catana owners, Dave had a ...

... visited a nearby marina and toured a custom boat named Chanty. A gorgeous piece of work. On September 11 we motored to the North River on Mobjack for a change of scenery, admiring the homes on the river bank including that of Chanty&#8217;s owner. The following day we returned to Willoughby Harbor Marina in light NW wind and flew our new secondary spinnaker. The color combination is quite wild but the sail flies well!

... we left the boat in very clean condition, half the work is cleaning. A large part of the work is also getting things out which were formerly put away for the off season and testing them. Then there is also additional preventative maintenance where has to be fully caught up before undertaking a 4 -5 month voyage. I have had little mechanical surprises on FF and one reason is that I have little or no deferred maintenance to our ...
