9:25: We returned the fridge on auxiliary battery No. 1
We found a utility for the cockpit table extensions that served as storage shelf at the end of the V-Berth. They simply rest on the storage side and are very sables motor as sailing.
Great idea Benoit. Worked very well for the rest of the trip.
We went to the Moorings Marina across Mallots Bay. We got rid of the garbage and filled the tanks full of water and bought some diesel. It was too difficult to do groceries from Moorings, and we figured we had enough reserves.

We were heading for Valcour
As we drive out of Mallet's Bay we come across a beautiful Yahl. Black hull, wooden bridge, white sails. He looks great!
The stage fright invades me little by little again it is necessary to cross again this capricious pass with its seaweed and shallows. After what seems like endless minutes we are finally in deeper water ... phew! In the end ... more fear than harm. <Daniele>
We motored to Sloop Bay but it seemed too small for the likes of Bellum and we motored around the south of Valcour.
14h30: We anchored in Butterfly Bay with a good twenty boats. It's a popular bay! We go in the dingy to a beach on Valcour. We walked a little in the woods and a campground but did not venture more than a couple hundred yards. We were concerned about ticks. We took the time to take a nap on the hot sand and return to Bellum a little later.
