The Coffs Wash!

6th Jun 2010

Over the weekend, we have been stuck in Coffs by a combination of needing a 50 hrs service on the Yanmar (can't do that until Monday) and the winds, which remain quite strong.

Although on the marina, this place has been aptly described as a washing machine and that’s holds true for this stay. Most nights, Pilgrim, and all the other boats on the marina, bounce on mooring lines and work the fenders hard. In fact, Coffs Marina is well known for its rough conditions in big seas. We certainly haven't seen this but the pic shows what it can be like here. None the less, the layover is  a good opportunity for admin (real life goes on) and the ever present boat work.
