We volunteered to bring Coug back CBYC (Mark's van was back a CBYC).
We left PCYC and went outside of Toronto Island.
With just two of us, we decide not to bother with the sails.
Took some time to troubleshoot the leaking diesel fuel. When I took the cover off the motor with the motor running, I could see a steady stream of diesel coming out by the rear injector. There was a small plastic return hose that had come off. I cut the end off and re-attached it, and problem solved. Wish I had done this during the 300!

Mark drove me back to PCYC.
I immediately headed out for Hamilton single handed; wind on the nose again! Didn't bother with the sails.
It was neat having them open the Burlington lift bridge for me.

Got to Royal Hamilton Yacht Club and got a slip with power on the front lawn.

My friend Neil and I are volunteering as Marshalls at the RBC Canadian Open as we have done for the past 5 years. We stayed on the boat until the following Monday. Hamilton Golf and Country Club is about a 15 minute drive from the Yacht Club. Neil came out with a vehicle and stayed the week on the boat.
It worked out really well, and RHYC didn't charge me a dime!
