The 26–27 September passage — Alameda to Tomales
Two nights, Sat 26 – Sun 27 September. Rowan:
“Ophelia splashes Saturday the 19th. So: the weekend of the 26th and 27th, two nights on the boat, up to Tomales.”
hobbs-2g6 — the gate under the whole weekend, open since 5 September — closed on
that sentence. The boat half is here. The rest of the weekend is in [[maya]],
and it stays there (authority row 14).
Three days out, three things unbooked, and Hobbs books none of them
Authority rows 11 and 12, and no calendar curator (ADR-20).
hobbs-1ox | The mooring at the far end, nights of the 26th and 27th | Rowan calls. P1 |
hobbs-45i | Provisioning, fuel, pumpout, before the 26th | P2 |
hobbs-8hi | Cover for [[Sam]] — both parents away, no name recorded anywhere | P1, and it lives in family |
hobbs-8hi is listed here and owned there on purpose. It is the only one of
the three with a person at the end of it and the longest lead time, and it is
invisible from this venture unless this note names it.
Not held and not invented
Which mooring “the far end” is · who holds it · whether it takes a booking · the number · the lead time · the passage · the tides · and this boat’s draft.
No marina data and no curator (constitution rule 17, ADR-20). None of the above is estimated, and a plausible-looking number here would be worse than the blank.
The constraint that shapes everything else about it
It is a surprise. Nothing about this weekend reaches the shared calendar or [[Maya]] — including the authority-row-8 health line. Recorded as logistics. Hobbs holds no view on any of the rest of it (authority row 14).
The yard, stated plainly
The yard holding the boat this weekend leaves on is the yard that has not been
paid. hobbs-bg9, P0, decided 12 September to pay Monday 14 September.
