MacIntosh Chester to Halifax

Four guys from Toronto got on a Westjet 6:50am flight to Halifax.
  • Me
  • Michael
  • Kris
  • Kevin
We arrived at 9:30am Halifax time, and Durk's wife Linda was there to pick us up and take us to Chester.


We met Durk and Greg at the dock:


MacIntosh is usually on a mooring ball, but with hurricane Aurthur coming through just two days before, Durk has moved her to the wall at the Marina.

A Nonsuch 26 and J/120 on mooring balls didn't fair so well, and went up on the rocks:



We went into town to provision the boat with groceries and more importantly beer.  Much of the town was still without power after hurricane Aurthur.
