We fish again for awhile and then we find ourselves outside a little fishin' village called Elfin Cove. We get close for a photo.

Should we pull in? “Maybe” “I dunno” “Naw”
We turn the Blackwood around to leave and some guy comes out to the end of the dock and starts yelling and waving his arms around madly. We figure it’s some crazy local guy trying to get us to come back and spend some money. Just then we get a call over the radio, “Uh, Blackwood…It’s your brother.” Huh? We were only half right...Hi, Tom.

Turns out that JW’s brother, Tom, and his wife Jan just happen to be docked at Elfin Cove at that exact moment in time and space in their yacht, Sun Chaser. Small world, huh? And let that be a lesson; it’s hard to hide sometimes.

Anyways, Elfin Cove turns out to be a real treat. The photos speak for themselves.

After that we head back to the dock to pick up the newest member of the crew.
