Comments: I woke up at 4:30 but did not get out of bed until dawn. I packaged several more meals, then went to the boat to take the provision I had prepared and gather some more ingredients. I stopped by Woolworths and was back at the house at 8:00, making another half dozen meals. I returned to the boat at 9:30 to meet with Jonathan from Southern Loft. He said the sails were in very good shape and now could easily go around the world another time. Another stop at the store and another half dozen meals later, I laid down for my midday nap. I visited the hardware store and the boat once more. Tomorrow I will do final laundry, make the last of meals, and donate the cans of food onboard that I will not be using, do I can make room to finish cleaning the main cabin and move back onboard Sunday.
