day thirteen - off day in Onancock


A day off from sailing in Onancock.  But still plenty of work to do.  Almost two weeks out so it is a good time for resupply, cleaning and drying out.


Plus I enjoy the town.  Interesting shops.  Lots of folks dropping by the wharf to say hello.


A chance to recharge the power packs.


Pastries at the bakery for breakfast.  An excellent crab salad at Mallard's for lunch.


Refill the water bottles.


Enjoying some iced tea in a coffee shop while I catch up on the log and watch guests that don't always follow the rules.


 And one last stop for the day, a visit to the bakery to pick up a couple of donut for tomorrow morning.

Steve, every time I see a pic of your dry suit, I zoom in to try to read the make and model. Still missing. I'm looking to buy one and hope to get your recommendation. Thanks.

That's a Stohlquist Amp drysuit. I am not sure that it is still available. The suit was designed for kayaking and waterspouts, so lots of mobility. Very comfortable to the point that I sometimes forget I am wearing it. There are are few other brands out there but I am not familiar with them. Steve
