Concert on the Sea

Friday August 5^th – We decided to leave Prideaux Haven and head just a few miles away to Tenedos for a night. After getting anchored and shore tied we decided to take our dinghies to Refuge Cove for lunch and some groceries. Refuge Cove is about 6nm from Tenedos. It’s the only place in the area that has some groceries, and a restaurant if you call it that. In a 13’ dinghy it’s a bit of a trek through some fairly open water but the weather was nice so we decided to make the journey. Following behind us was Todd & Tami and Bruce & Gloria. The 3 dinghies made it without incident but it did get a little sloppy in one area.

We fueled up the dinghies, got some groceries, had lunch and a beer at the restaurant then made the run back to our boats anchored in Tenedos. It was a fun adventure!

Every year a large Ocean Alexander puts on a concert on the back of their boat in Prideaux Haven. We happened to be here this year and today was the day. Back in the dinghies, drinks and snacks in hand, we all cruised over to the concert where there were at least 100+ small boats all tied together ready to watch the concert. We found our place in the sea of boats and tied on. The concert was fantastic and the crowd was fun to watch. One lady was getting a little crazy dancing on a boat. She lost her balance, fell into another boat and totally destroyed their windshield. She was ok, but I don’t think the guy who owned the boat was very happy!

After the concert the kids couldn’t resist the rope swing one more time. They jumped off the boat, and each took turns swinging through the air to the water below. I had to pee, so the rope swing was the perfect excuse to get in the water but it was actually a whole lot of fun swinging with the kids.
