Sunday, September 22 Prudeaux Haven to Refuge Cove 1 hour 8.4 miles

We haven't been to Refuge Cove for a number of years.  The wind it up to 30 mph in the anchorage.  We are ready to move on so we take a very short trip over to Refuge Cove.  They have a market and simple restaurant there.  There never was any power or water on the dock.  We were surprised to see power columns on the dock.  The sign says $0.70/foot and $7 for 15 amp power.  After Fred got the power cord flaked out someone on one of the nearby houses said the power is turned off for the winter.  We are alone here and now understand why.  We are glad to be in a protected harbor for the night.  The grocery store is only open on M-W F from 1-3 pm.   Well darn!  Fortunately we are not desperate for supplies.  At least Merlin was able to run around on firm ground for awhile.  We stayed warm and dry from the storm here for the night.
