It was sooooo hot and humid at the dock, as soon as we got out of the harbour mouth, we felt relief. We hooked up to a mooring ball and cooked up on dinner on the BBQ. We stayed on the mooring ball for about an hour. It was nice.
I hoisted the main at the mooring ball, motored away from the mooring ball, unfuled the jib, and we sailed on a beam reach toward Pickering. The winds were light from the south, with hardly any waves. Easy sailing. Got the boat going over 4 knots is probably 5 knots of wind.
We sailed to Ajax before turning back, as Mathew and Danielle were going to a movie.
On the way back the 3 Demmers sat on the bow enjoying the sail. Unfortunately, Danielle dropped her sunglasses in the water. Friday the 13th offering to Neptune's waters.
Nice Glasses! |
Thanks for coming out guys!
Rita and I ended up staying on the boat; we were so hot and sweaty that we had our first showers on the boat. The shower works well, although you do have to sit on the bench.
