The boys went once again to Webber's house at French Pass. Tom drove his boat from Nelson Haven while a couple of other runabouts were towed by road. We were joined by Bruce and Geoff from the Motueka RSA fishing club.

The fare was better- No more Lion Red and DB Double Brown: Peter had been put in charge of wines and so they also were better.

French Pass lighthouse gets a make over
|
On arriving at our French Pass house, we found that the place had been double booked - by the blokes who were repairing the lighthouse and also the wife of one of the men plus a couple of kids who had come for the day. Fortunately there were plenty of beds and rooms so no one had to top and tail.

Food and drinks |
George as usual kept us supplied with diver's goodies - Crayfish, Moki & Butterfish.
Oh - we also went fishing. Here's the crew in Tom's boat.
Tom's boat threw a sickie; a call to Nelson said that it might get better with $$$$ ! Our intrepid crew took a look at it and found that the motor got back to normal with the air filter cleaned and a few minor adjustments. Tom put the $$$$ back in his pocket and had a good run back to Nelson
On our final night we invited Lyn Bolton over for a meal. She was not disappointed with the food.
Goodbye for now. Next trip in July!
