The forecast for the weekend was 28 degrees. It hit 29!
On Friday, the power failed at home at about 13:29, so I departed for the club and sailed around the lighthouse, then to the gut, tacking to outside Grand Anse where I anchored for the evening. No motor.
Saturday morning, I determined there was not enough wind for Rachel to come out, so we cancelled. I set sail at noon and landed in PCYC for Oktoberfest. I hit a new rock on the way into the harbour.
Darla cancelled, so I spent the Oktoberfest alone.

On Sunday morning, Natalie, Scarlett and Caroline came to race the second Frostbite. We changed from 135 to 155 and started at 10 AM. It was postponed and eventually cancelled at 11:45.

We sailed around until 2:30, when we returned to PCYC. The visitor dock was blocked by Carpricon, so we took AdLib's dock, which went out to St. Anne.
I lost my Tilley hat overboard, and we successfully recovered it.

The weather looked nice for the rest of the evening, so I sailed to Grand Anse, passing Fugu anchored outside Dowkers South. I anchored zero-carbon and spent the night there with an almost full moon.
The next morning, there was no wind, so I took off at 8, returning to the dock at 9:40, and did an oil change for the engine and transmission.
I biked to the MUHC for a blood test, but they wouldn't take me because my doctor was not affiliated with that hospital.
