Intro: Begin at 3rd note of lyrics after instrumental -- “There’s a PORT on a western bay”
[1 – 8] Right Fwd Lock, Right Fwd Locking Triple, ¼ Pivot R, L Cross Shuffle
1-2Step R forward (1), lock L behind R (2) (12:00)
3&4Step R forward (3), lock L behind R (&), step R forward (4)
5-6Step forward on L (5), turn ¼ right stepping on R (6) (3:00)
7&8Cross L over R (7), step on R (&), cross L over R (8)
[9 – 16] Reverse Rumba Box R with Shuffles Back & Fwd
9-10Step R to right (9), step L next to R (10)
11&12Step R back (11), step L next to R (&), step R back (12)
13-14Step L to left (13), step R next to L (14)
15&16Step L forward (15), step R next to L (&), step L forward (16)
[17 – 24] Rock R Fwd/Recover L, ½ Triple Step Turn R x 2, Rock R Back/Recover L
17-18Rock forward on R (17), recover weight to L (18)
19&20Make ½ turn R-step back on R (19), step L next to R (&), step forward on R (20) (9:00)
21&22Make ½ turn R-step back on L (21), step R next to L (&), step forward on L (22) (3:00)
23-24Rock back on R (23), recover weight to L (24)
(Easier variation to avoid turns (counts 19 through 22))
19&20Shuffle in place-step on R (19), L (&), R (20)
21&22Shuffle in place-step on L (21), R (&), L (22), then do steps 23-24 as written above
[25 – 32] ¼ Modified Monterey Turn R x 2 (On each odd count, bend “support” leg a bit while turning knee and toes of your bent “touching” leg inward (your “core” will turn diagonally); return to straight, upright stance on even counts)
25-26Touch R to R side (25), turn ¼ R, bring R next to L & shift weight to R (26) (6:00)
27-28Touch L to L side (27), step L next to R (28)
29-30Touch R to R side (29), turn ¼ R, bringing R next to L & shifting weight to R (30) (9:00)
31-32Touch L to L side (31), step L next to R (32)
At very end of music fade out, you will be back on front wall before 2nd Monterey turn. Instead of doing second ¼ turn R, simply touch R to right and back to center, then L to left, and center.
