Best Mother’s
Day present ever!! We left the North Channel Yacht Club at 10:30 to begin our
trip! Club Members lined the dock to say their farewells; it was extremely overwhelming.
We had a great sail easterly to the Benjamin Islands where we anchored for the
night all alone – this never happens here.
This is the climbing rock at South Benjamin Island.
We continued
easterly which took us through the port of Little Current on Manitoulin Island,
a hub for boaters in the North Channel. The town allows free day use of the
docks to provision, enjoy the restaurants, shopping and even has free hot
showers. One of the few swing bridges is
located here, and opens on the hour to allow boaters through.
We continued
easterly to Heywood Island to anchor for the night.

We left Heywood
and tacked our way easterly until we could move south around the northeastern
tip of Manitoulin Island. We got
to Club island where we anchored for that night. The water here was crystal
clear.

We sailed to Tobermory
today with up to 32 knots of wind (60 kilometers per hour). A little bumpy LOL, but
we did it.
When we arrived
we utilised their free town docks to buy a few provisions and anchored in Big
Tub Harbour home to the sunken ships. Yikes
