After putting things away we set sail around noon. Iron out bugs in Depth Finder. Ron is nauseous, so he stays below in the head. I steer to head into the wind awhile as others unfurl the mail sail. Tack toward Cooper Island. Partly cloudy en route then a big squall when we arrive there. Chilly, but it lasts only 15 minutes.

2pm Peter and I make tuna sandwiches for everyone. Chat. Get snorkle gear out + wash goggles. Remembered to use life vest since I don't float well. Test out my gear. Fine. Take dinghy aways + snorkle there. Big, bright, tastefully colored fish. Antler coral. Stay in at least a half hour thanks to life vest. Take dinghy back.
