Paw Paw - Log Day 31: "All's Well that Ends Well"

Change of plan again. Instead of spending another day and night in Cacique while we waited on the high tide to enjoy the dinghy ride up the river, we decided to head for Isla Canas, where we could service both the engines, given the developments that occurred with the generator. To be sure, to be sure we didn't encounter any other unforeseen issues.

We were in the process of anchoring when we received the message that Into the Blue had run aground not far from where we were. So, it was a case of lift the anchor rather than waste time trying to get it set, lower the dinghy and, while Elaine circled Paw Paw out of harms way, Roy raced over to assist. Fortunately his help was not needed as Into the Blue managed to get themselves afloat again.

Once that panic was over and we were all anchored safely, we received an invite from Into the Blue to join them onboard. While we enjoyed afternoon tea and freshly baked cupcakes, Roy managed to assist them in getting their dive compressor working as well as their AIS. After a shaking start to the day, it ended very well indeed!

Tomorrow it'll be an early start to make our way to the rendezvous in preparation for our next passage - the Galapagos Islands, where we're looking forward to reconnecting with Ondular (Isabel and Mick), whom we last saw in Martinique prior to last Hurricane Season.
