Mexican Night Onboard Moondragon

Moondragon – Thirty-one People Onboard for Mexican Night!

The winter party was just down the dock from us on Moondragon, an old Chinese Junk boat (circa 1970). Boaters have the best parties! Never so true as last night with this group of boaters in Victoria, BC. Even though we have only been here two weeks, we felt like part of the family here at Coast Harbourside Marina. Thanks to hosts Dennis and Lynda for a fun night (many margaritas) and to the Jolly Mon Band for the fabulous music and sing-a-longs. Can you spot Jim Favors?

It was just a little tight on the boat with 31 partiers, most sat around the huge table in junk’s big saloon.

Friend and fellow Ranger Tugs owner, Mark, on Irish Mist, (below-left) showed up in full gear, with wig and sunglasses, helping us all feel like we were somewhere quite warmer than chilly, rainy Victoria, British Columbia. As you can see the party soon took a turn towards more of a “Pass the Wig and Sunglasses” party. Even one of the dogs got to sport the wig for a minute while the other dog quietly slept in the corner of the Moondragon, we think he just wanted everyone to go home.

The Jolly Mon Band played well into the morning. They belted out some great oldies and lead us through some fun sing-a-longs. Norm’s (guitarist-below) boat, Jolly Mon is docked across from us in the harbor.

Yup! There he is. Quite the look for Mr. Favors. Would you agree?
