Fail to get through covid, change operators, do a full refurbish, then at the height of your first summer, basic infrastructure screws you...
Kawau Boating Club Hi Everyone 👋 unfortunately due to power outtage Island wide we are unable to operate the bistro. We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. Hope to be back open tomorrow. We will keep you posted 👍
Wonder what size generator they need to run a kitchen like that?

You out up at Bon Accord then fish? No, that was via FB. But on embracing the suck of sailing, I've been trying to clean birds nest shit off my new white mainsail. Will be going back on the boat tomorrow (or the next day if the gale warning happens). Thought I'd be clever and put it on the deck rather than the lawn and risk grass, seeds and insects getting on it and onto the boat, or on the drive, which being concrete would be grimy and get grit and what not all over the sail. Shame I didn't clean the deck first. Nice grey deck clearly has a load of grime on it, so after scrubbing birds nest detritious off one side, the other side is picking up grubby grey, especially on the fold and seems. Washes off the folds easy, but it sticks to the stitching like shit to a blanket. Oh, and imagine trying to stand over and scrub a bright white sail on a smoking hot day - not my best thinking. Why do we have white sails? It's bright to look at and impossible to keep clean. I should have gone for one of those funky grey laminates. Can't afford the black ones, but I think they would have gotten too hot today. Would hide the bird nests well though.

Have cold beer and a menu but limited. According to their FB.
