 So be careful and have fun out there  :)

Sweet way to handle your Asymmetrical Spinnaker. Check out the video.
I think the price is similar to a sock

Had a great weekend of boating with old friends. I do mean old, we have know each other since the 70's they were throwing around 40 years but I refused to believe them. Anyway had some great weather and an awssum sail back to the marina on Sunday, with 10-15 knots of wind and lots of tacking. Didn't take any time at all to train them to grind and trim lol.
Looking forward to additional time off when rogers decides to walk me out because I am now employed by their competition. I will head back up north for a few days of R and R. Today would be a good day to provision and tomorrow would be a great day to head out on the next adventure. :)

Nice end to the vacation two days of rain and motor sailing for an additional two days to get back. But one good thing not one problem with the boat other than a few loose threads. Had a great time but need more time as always. Next year maybe a 3 week vacation :).

Well does it just figure no rain and hotter than any summer yet and on my vacation I am stuck in Britt for a couple of days because of a monsoon that's heading our way. Guess its time to get the 1tb drive out and watch all the movies I downloaded and ripped :) I'd rather be sailing in the sunshine :(

Stopped in Killarney yesterday to pick up some fresh fish and a order of fish and chips and was pleasantly surprised to discover new public docks ..... brand new this year by the looks of them and it's about time. Dockage in Killarney was difficult to find at the best of times, the only one available up until now was the LCBO dock. Total number of new slips, 12. They were busy and that was to be expected. They are located next to the general store, so that's convenient and are a short walk to the LCBO and Herbert's fish&chips. They have 15+ ft of depth, so you non shallow draft SV (Dallis & Amy not a rock in sight :) ) can get in there as well.
