Sunday, July15, 2012

We left Parry Sound on Saturday morning.  John had to get out the chart plotting kit to figure out exactly where we were supposed to go.  (Thanks, Sue).  The weather report was calling for scattered thunder storms last night and today.  After cruising about 60 miles, we set our anchor in a nice big bay called Sandy Bay.  There was one other boat anchored in the bay.  Fortunately, the rain stayed away.

This morning we pulled up anchor and moved along.  We had a 17 mile section that was unprotected to run today.  John had to use the chart plotting tools again.  We have the charts, but the GPS doesn't have the buoys marked on it.  So, to plot the course, John used what he learned in Captain's School.  This area is gorgeous.  We stopped today in Killarney at The Sportsman's Inn and Marina. where they have Internet service.  Yea!!  This marina and the town are both so quaint.  John thinks they look like a Norman Rockwell painting. 

This channel is so narrow.  Can you see how close the buoys are? 


I think this is the rock called the Crabby Indian. 


The rocks are so pretty.


Rocks everywhere!
