Sunday 8 September 2019

We made it a leisurely Sunday and did not go anywhere.  The marina boasted a fully functional laundrette, and we rewashed the laundry from the visit in Stintino, this time getting everything properly clean and dry.

Most of the morning was spent taking apart and rebuilding our "Swedish thing". This is a special boat hook that is designed to put a rope through an eye on a buoy.  It works on a ratchet mechanism and that seemed to have jumped out of its proper position. We managed to disassemble it and examine how it was intended work.  It took us 3 attempts to rebuild it and get it working properly, but were very satisfied with the results.  Our online investigation had revealed that the makers are happy to replace the device in the event of a malfunction, but we expect to need it before a new one could arrive.

Our biggest exercise was to return to the town and look at more of the shops and buy gelato.
