Destin to Pensacola is a short day for us so we headed out
around 6:30 AM and S/V Morning Star was heading out at 6:00 AM offshore. Josh had his list of people he needed to talk
to about our windlass ready and waiting.
As soon as places were open phone calls were being made. We arrived at Palafox Marina around noon and
as soon as we were settled in Josh purchased a new windlass (to be shipped to
New Orleans where we will be in several days).
We discussed the situation all morning long and because this is a very
important part of our boat and there is no way Josh or I could hand pull the
anchor in, we decided it was best to replace it. Around 2:00 PM we helped S/V Morning Star
into their slip and once they were settled and our bikes out, we headed out to check
out restaurants for a Thanksgiving dinner and then over to Joe Patti’s for today’s
dinner. We purchased fresh smoked
salmon for our freezer, steamed shrimp and fresh bread for dinner. We are not sure what we will do for
Thanksgiving because we only found two restaurants that will be open and they want
“an arm and a leg” for the meal. We may
ride our bikes to a grocery store tomorrow morning and cook own dinner onboard!
