April 27th - Fishermans festival

Saturday Today in Bodega Bay there is a Fisherman's Festival. We went along to have a look, it was great fun, lots of craft stalls, as one would expect, live music and lots of seafood. The main event was a boat building competition. Four people, three hours to build it, two races, one winner. Using some plywood and soft wood, using only hand tools and an electric drill, (plus several rolls of duct tape). There were 18 teams and all seemed to be working from a plan. It was good fun to watch. The races themselves were over quite quickly, it was surprising how well constructed the boats were. The race was one by the local firemen, to everybodies delight. We really enjoyed our day out at the Fisherman's Festival.
