As soon as the mooring barge left Woodford Bay we raced to Passion&#8217;s mooring on the other side of the peninsular at Valentia street so I could motor Passion to Greenwich towing the tender. At Greenwich I picked up a spare mooring and waited for our mooring from Valentia Street to be relocated. It was warm down below as I used the spare time to delete spurious way points from the chart plotter and enter our new mooring location.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1269\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/3gwiz.com.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.59.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1269\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1269\" src=\"http:\/\/3gwiz.com.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.59-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Looking back to Cockatoo Island from Passion's new mooring at Greenwich\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gwiz.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.59-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.gwiz.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.59-1024x579.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1269\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Looking back to Cockatoo Island from Passion&#8217;s new mooring at Greenwich<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1270\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/3gwiz.com.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.49.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1270\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1270\" src=\"http:\/\/3gwiz.com.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.49-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Looking North to Greenwich Flying Squadron from Passion's new mooring in Greenwich\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.gwiz.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.49-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.gwiz.au\/passion_wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/2016-03-04-13.41.49-1024x579.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1270\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Looking North to Greenwich Flying Squadron from Passion&#8217;s new mooring in Greenwich<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The row to Greenwich Flying Squadron is about 400 metres and it took six minutes to reach the club. After ten years stored on the rocks at Woolwich the tender needed a clean with the high pressure machine which Elaine had driven around from Woolwich. An hour later the dinghy was cleaned and in the allocated rack ready for next Wednesday.<br \/>\nAs a result of the time taken on Passion very little was achieved on the new build.
