Children, don\u2019t let your balloons float away, they end up on \/ in Lake Ontario.<\/p>\n
Short post today. \u00a0We made it to Cobourg. We had decent winds for a few hours so we sailed on a broad \/ beam reach. But alas, the winds died down so we motored for 8 of the 10 hours.<\/p>\n
Plan is to get up and be underway by 04:00 tomorrow and go all the way to Kingston. Low winds forecast, and some rain. But the longer range forecast isn\u2019t great.<\/p>\n
We can abandon that plan and divert to either Waupoos or Main Duck island. But hey, 16 hours should be easy, right?<\/p>\n
Oh, I bought some Solarcane tonight. Not going to say why.<\/p>\n
Mans this damn cold persists. Child number one has to yell everything at me as my good ear has gone bad.<\/p>\n
Child number one was at the helm for most of the sailing time.<\/p>\n
That 12 volt USB adapter I got on Amazon \u00a0seemed fine until the sparks and smoke \u00a0No fire extinguisher required fortunately<\/p>\n
