Day 13 Friday July 5th
We woke
up today in Thomas Bay to another beautiful day. We enjoyed a morning swim then headed off for a dinghy ride and
hike. Unfortunately our outboard engine
was not in agreement to cooperate. We
got only about 800 meters and the engine got fussy. After many pulls at the starter cord we got
about 300 metres back toward the mainship and stopped at an island to explore,
having decided we best not continue on any further away from the sailboat. A bald eagle made an appearance for a brief
fly by. Other than that a frog and a
snake (red belly) and that was it. We
had to row our way back to Jazzebelle (ship still has original name). Everyone but Julie took a turn so we got our
exercise for the day.
It was
now time to start thinking about weighing anchor and return our guest to
Killarney. We were only about an hour
away but it would be after 3 b y the time we got into the town so off we
went. Unfortunately there was not wind
for a sail, so the iron genny did the job.
A quick good bye, a trip to lcbo, and the grocers to buy milk, drop off
our trash and we were off again. We had
a 3 hour trip to get to Marianne’s cove up Baie Finn to meet up with
Trevisiol’s and Chabot’s. We had an
excellent sail across Fraser Bay and then ghosted our way undersail up Baie
Finn to the cove. It was just
beautiful. We swung on the hook for the
night,. This anchorage is well
sheltered. There were about 10 boats in
the cove. We went over to say a
hello to our friends after we had a
relaxing G&T, which is fast becoming our favourite drink, in honour of our
Turkish sailing trip.
Cheers
Julie and Dawson
