So I finally decided to create a blog for my sailing adventures around the sixth great lake Georgian Bay. On here you will find all kinds of interesting stuff to keep you entertained. Links to some interesting articles web pages and some great photos from around the bay and of the anchorages we visit. Of course all this would be possible with out my best friend Dragonfly. Shes a great sail boat, stable, easily handles the weather and waves of the bay and is really comfortable for spending quality time on.

This years holidays on the bay will be 5-6 days around the July long weekend and 2 weeks at the end of July and first week of August.
The link is to Google Earth with a rough plot of the trip for the 2 weeks vacation CANT GET THIS TO WORK
Plans for the long weekend will be heading north to the Parry Sound area, maybe stop at the Western Isl group for a day. There is an interesting anchorage there.

So that is this years plans, but first there is boat yard work to do. The bottom paint is OK for another year. I have one of two coats of wax on the side of the hull. I hope to get a second one put on by hand this weekend.

We have a brand new BBQ to install and I have 5 of 7 coats of varnish on the cockpit table and companionway handholds. They will  be re-installed after launch day.
So heading down to the marina Saturday morning to get some work done and arrange for a launch day.
