This area off Rolleville is wide open, with swell and wind chop, so it
is rather active. It is sand bars with deeper fingers between them. I
threaded my way in between the sandbars as close to Rolleville as I
could get and still float, then grounded against a sandbar, dropped the
anchor, and reversed back into what I hoped woujld be deeper water (7'
deep instead of 6'deep) I missed just a little so I drifted back into
not so deep water and stayed grounded until late. I set another anchor
so that when the tide rose I would drift into deeper water. I think it
worked. It is 05:30, almost low tide, and I am still floating. I like it
better when she floats. I feel trapped when aground. Also the movement
is funny, jerky.
Now raining, 15 knots registering. Today will be an adventure.
