Of course, we used our compasses to guide us out and back. Along the way back, our solitude was disturbed by the rumbling of a loud motor going very slowly. It turned out to be one of those $100,000 cigarette racing boats. The guy in it came up to us and asked which way back to the harbor. In the thick fog, we pointed him in the right direction.
