Portobello July 16



N09deg.33.3 W079deg.39.5
We got an early start to our next anchorage (the norm)--raising the anchor around 0700. We motor sailed the 15 miles to Portobello (the 'beautiful port'-named in 1502 by Columbus). The skies are still gray-- seas not too bad--2-4 ft. Wind 5-8 knts. from the SW. We're the only other sailboat here, besides a catamaran. We're traveling solo--the off season it seems for cruisers, so we get many anchorages all to ourselves! This harbor has a lot of history--there are the ruins of four forts we can explore.
