We received a duty free fuel and filled up 121 gallons at ~$3.15/gallon.
You have to Med-moor to the concrete dock and then drag the hose out to the boat. It was a little dicey as there was a decent swell running and there was a fair amount of surge close to the pier.
It took about an hour to complete; we were relieved once that was finished.
We then headed to Daniel's Bay to have a calm anchorage and hike to the famous waterfall there.
Mike, Katie and Al onboard Pangaea met us there for the hike

| On our way to Daniels Bay, Tom, JD and Rob went for a drag behind the boat, Sylvia cheerfully drove Shindig. |
 |
| Another breakage: Run Capacitor on the water maker exploded. (Note: Miss Piggy, favorite egg timer, also perished a few weeks later) |
