The crew of a Carrick Craft cruiser besides us decide to leave because of the ongoing party. We stay and watch the party folks leaving an hour later. They nearly forget their dinghy and the man who jumps into it from the jetty almost ends in the water and is then unable to bring off the boat from the jetty but a friendly man helps him. His visual faculty is restricted and while swerving about and driving in circles he is unable to bring the dinghy to the cruiser. The boats vanish behind the reeds. The jetty is again quiet and a lot of people are shaking their heads in disbelief. Later Inga and Holger pass on their way downstream.
The evening is sunny and the wind calms down.
