We had a leisurely breakfast, then went for a hike on Beaurivage
Island and did a ittle bushwhacking. We
returned to the boat and had a swim to get cleaned up. We had lunch at anchor, the set sail for
Wolfe Island to anchor for the night. We
sailed across a large area of open water called the 40 acres. The wind was perfect for sailing – about 12
knots and we had a pleasant beat to Wolfe with Marc and Dee doing most of the
helming to windward. – Nice work
guys! We arrived at Wolfe and found
there were a lot of boats anchored in Brakey Bay so we continued to the next
bay - Irvine bay – which had only one boat anchored, 44° 13.66N 76° 16.42W.
This bay is larger than Brakey, so it was almost like having it to
ourselves – perfect. We tried a new
strategy for keeping bugs out of the boat.
Lately, we’ve been getting small white bugs attracted by the light inside
the boat. So we erected our mosquito
netting and hung a light outside of the netting. The next morning we discovered gazillions of
these bugs on the outside of the boat.
What a mess, but better out than in!
We claim success.
