20060527 0000 Night Sail to Fairlee Creek

by @ 12:30 am. Filed under Logs

00:00 Continued transit to Fairlee Creek.

01:10 Approaching outer red bouy “2F” to find it is now a day marker, difficult to mnake out the channel markers for a fairlee channel. Found multiple red markers and a couple of small private green markers. Finally determined the channel which heads directly toward the beach. Closed on the shore until the private green markers along the beach were in line off the port. Made a 90 degree turn to port running parrallel to the beach stayed closer to the mid channel than to shore. Hung on an gravel bar mid channel. Backed off the bar and attempted again closer to the beach. Continued to the inlet and made a 90 degree starboard turn into the creek at slack low tide, very little current. Passed through the entrance and proceeded to inch toward anchorage while monitoring depth.

02:00 Dropped the plow anchor in 8 foot of water and set a 70 foot scope of all chain. Set anchor watch alarm on gps, secured running light and steaming light, energized anchor light.

02:08 secured engine and rigged ship for at anchor. Wind Generator on.

02:58 verified anchoring position, checked weather and secured anchor watch.
