Lovely long weekend san vent - cleaning boat

Primary DC panel
Daniele took an extra long weekend.

We did our groceries at IGA, packed the boat.

We finished the wiring of the electrical panels.

Daniele didn't really want to depart but I did.  She was glad that we did. Had a nice night at Dowkers near Andre. We tried the sails a bit but wanted to get there before sunset.

The nice fish froze so we had something else I could not remember.  Nice evening.  Lazy Saturday.  We eventually took off and tried to sail for a bit but the wind died. We anchored far from the sandbars and went for a swim (May 21) and decided to go explore the Chateauguay river which was very nice.  Had 12 foot of water with an occasional 7.5 feet.  We went almost to the bridge and came back an anchored south of the Active Captain anchorage.  There was some wood debris near the sanctioned anchorage. Had a nice steak supper.



The current kept us facing south and we put a "spare" anchor light at the stern.

The next day was windless, so we washed waxed and polished the cockpit.





























Steven had called to see Cygnus so we planned it for Monday.  We got to the dock an hour early so we pumped out and changed the anchor light to LED.


Showed Steven the boat and then we went back to the dock.  I finished waxing the cockpit and had the sausages.  I think we had the salmon for lunch.

Tuesday was windless so we washed, polished and waxed the topside.

Then we drove to Daniele's on Tuesday night.
