Cat’s Paw

Bringing Cat’s Paw-Home Snead Island to Cape Coral 05-Jan-2023  - Arrived via Jeep at Snead Island Boat Works.  Crew : Art Schuler and Craig Klocke Spent an hour discussing a sub-standard buff and wax with Snead Island Service Manager Bob and he agreed to drop the charge. I paid the bill and we began preparations to leave.  Just after we arrived there was a torrential downpour so we closed up the boat and headed to Woody’s for lunch. There was a river of rain water running through the restaurant so w e had to hold our feet up.  On the way back to the marina we stopped at Walmart for provisions. I had to make an extra trip for diesel and dingy gas. Snead Island has neither.  I tried to get a slip at the Bradenton YC but they don’t offer reciprocal privileges to RYC or CMCS members. We departed Snead Island just before sunset and anchored  east of the Snead Island cut. We had an issue with the pressure water but when I tried the next morning it worked.  06-Jan-2023 - 0858 -  Anchor up -
