As agreed, Irwin drove me and the radar to Sailorman this morning. They were very reluctant to buy it but finally gave me $25 for it. That was a lot less than Roy had hoped for, but I was tickled pink to get rid of it.
Irwin dropped me off at Cooley's Landing, where I removed the sign I'd tacked to the bulletin board a couple of days ago. Then I took the bus to the radio place and got our radio. I'd noticed a Publix market a block or so away, so I walked there and bought a few groceries. Then I returned to the boat.
Roy completed the installation of the new radar and checked it out. Looked good, so all signals were go. At 5:45, we released the lines that attached us to the mooring buoy and took off. No problem leaving the harbor. We were soon motor-sailing east in a light southwest breeze. Lovely warm evening with a bright half moon.
