Brockville to Georgina island

Got up at 7 and started our day sans eau at the docks.  Brockville Yacht Club apparently shuts off all water at night, so we went to the Metro to buy bottled water.

Oil was checked. There was some oily residue on the bilge.  Looked real funny.  Like hull was excreting an oily substance.  Cleaned it up and it never occurred again.

We got some help to unstuck Cygnus from the tight dock and we took off west at 9am

As we left Brockville, we saw Helix pass us, she was going back home (Montreal).

After an hour, we put up the 130 in 20 knots winds we and tacked to the Small Craft Chanel where at 12:42, we decided to take down the sails after making many precarious maneuvers to avoid having shoals named after us. Lots of shoals on the GPS.

We sailed for almost three hours.

We were texting Drumroll and planned to rendezvous at Georgina Island.

We got there about three and swam and bucketed ourselves, and walked the west side of Georgina Island.  Lots of boats inside the island.  There were only three of us at our dock, east of the international bridge.

We wait for Drumroll who eventually could not make it to Geogina Island.

The next morning the power boat with kid had departed, after being caught by Park Wardens.
