Recordist's notes

(bianaural) marina is packed with boats and yachts. the steel wires pat on the masts and the boats squeak and creack when they rub against the jetties. some activity in the restaurant in the marina. in the background very distinct sound of Funchal, roaring engines of old Volvo buses.
