Our worst time running aground was Queenstown


Queenstown humbles many. One spring, probably the dozenth time we'd run
the channel, I decided Pat didn't need to read the directions. Went
aground twice before Pat got her chance to save the day.

Yup, stay close to the *buoy* at the narrowest part of the channel. The
permanent ones got wiped out last winter, so there was only a temporary
#3. Passing that, aim at that house and all will be fine. Every once in
a while, I'll get it just right and see 8' the whole way.
