Good Tuesday morning
Well back in the big port of Parry Sound. Ended up motoring all the way back here form Britt. Winds from the SSE right on the nose. Did try a little tacking out on the bay but I think I would have still been out there today  :)
Just checking the weather and there are 3M waves out on the bay with gust to 37 knt. Kinda glad I am tied to this dock :)

Pizza for dinner last night delivered right to the dock, its the small things that make life worth while lol.
Today will be full of chores and provisioning again. Open the last liter of mike for a nice warm tea this morning and it was bad. Borrowed a couple of creamers/milkers from the staff till I get more. Again its the small things lol.

Thought I may have had a problem with the alternator because the house batteries were low upon arrival yesterday but it seems to be ok. The max current out may be a little low, the output volt is ok 14.2V out at 1500 RPM, I will check that out when I get back to my marina.

Here is something for Tim on Windsum 2 ...leaving Britt tuned in the Cruisers net and checked in, got a complement on signal quality form Don, Roy was out on a cruise with CYC...FYI, Tim been hearing lots on American weather and coastguard stations on the handheld as well. The VHF station onboard even triggered on a weather alert test from Michigan


Anyway should get back to the jobs at hand, oh I will post a few videos and pics a little later today as soon as I get them organized.
