There was nothing for us at Niagara on the Lake so we left our mooring early, skipping out on our second free day at Niagara Sailing Club. We went across to Youngstown to clear customs for USA. The docking was a little difficult in windy conditions. People at the club were talking and there was a cleaning crew cleaning the concrete at the club. Nobody helped us dock. We were at a dock exclusively for members, but we were not going to stay long if we had no problems with customs.
Long sail to Wilson. Wind picked up as we came up to Wilson. Nice sailing. DF gets excited when we reach 8.2 knots. That is confirmed on boat speed calibrated with GPS,

Nick signed us in at Tuscarora Yacht Club and we got dock
I85. We motored in slowly while Daniele
moved the fenders from port to starboard and Nick helped us dock in a tiny dock
that was about 20 feet long.
Wilson was a nice town. We took a 5 mile walk to buy some
groceries at an IGA Mart with particular empathizes on cream for pasta and beer
for the crew. We walked through a
cemetery back to the boat.
We had AC Power so we charged up the toys |
Since we had AC Power, we recharged everything from
cameras to cellphones to electric toothbrushes and power tools.
