Last Sail

Sunday morning, I dropped off boat stuff at the locker and picked up the boat frame, and loaded it onto the locker.  Sylvie and I organized her boat until 4PM.  

Then I drove to Confederation park to join a hike, but it turns out the hike was at 2, not 4. I drove back to the club. Chatted with Andre Baby and Mark Eisenberg,  bought a bottle of MMHA from Veronica and set sail into the sunset without any wind.  Motored to the waters east of the lighthouse anchored, cleaned the anchor rode, and had St Hubert Ribs (the one with minimal sauce) and potatoes and onions.  Read a bit and went to bed early as I was tired. 

Woke up at 7:30 in the morning, not winds so I motored back to the club and rotated stuff between the boat, the dock, the locker and the car.  Took down the headsail.  Eventually, we hauled out OS and then Bellum about an hour later than scheduled. 

I stayed to winterize the head, washdown, and raw water system.  Cutting the pick-up hose made things easier.   Packed up the food from the fridge, removed a stanchion base of Polvinge and drove home.








Not much wear and tear on the keel bottom after so many hits this year.


82 hours on the engine

approx 300 nm - to be checked.

84 trips from the dock, 32 were single-handed.
