Saturday, June 25th

Sailed to Indian Harbour along the beautiful and rock strewn small boat channel. We had headwinds and narrow channels all day so motored most of the way.

Today's log: 13.4nm, Season total 24.9nm.

Having recruited Brenda and Vin for various jobs the past 2 days, we went for our first sail of the season today. Had a great sail to Lost Bay, anchored, explored ashore, ate, drank and played cards. Nice!

Today's log: 11.5nm, Season total: 11.5nm.

Our first guests (Brenda and Vin) arrived on Wednesday. As expected they pitched in to help up doing a few jobs afloat (like putting sails on etc.)

4pm engine repaired. 4:30 Quinita afloat. 6:15 settled into berth and off for showers. Yippee.

Still doing some jobs on the boat. Launch delayed another day - problems with port engine.

Sunday, June 19th


Josephine (from the UK) happens to be visiting her sister in Owen Sound - Just around the corner in Canadian terms - about 100 miles away. Small world. Josephine, Helen and Mrs. K. stopped by for lunch on Quinita. (Still ashore unfortunately).

Arrived in Midland at 6pm after 10 hours on the road from Vermont. We’d already spent a week in May and found the boat in great shape. Still plenty of little jobs to do though.
