Pos: N17deg56.78min/ W066deg52.49min. Last night was rolly. Nothing we couldn't endure, but the weather forecast for later today and tonight is for W-NW winds and possible squalls, which would put us on a lee shore. Not a good thing. In looking things over yesterday, we couldn't quite figure out where to land the dinghy to walk to the lighthouse; with the ferry at the dock and lots of people at the beach, landing at same sandy beach was out. So...with the weather forecast as an excuse to get away from the rolling, we upped anchor and motored (again, no wind) here to Gilligan's Island. It's calm, beautiful, has no roll, and is, we think, well protected from the expected weather change. I donned my wet suit and scraped a few dozen tiny barnacles from the hull; I'm sure our hull speed will increase substantially....
