The sailing area is fantastic and I can go out every weekend when I get back from site. I can also haul out and place the boat to a cradle on the town wharf.

Beat that! :-) Sounds almost perfect...if only it were in NC somewhere....perfection! SV |

Dropped by C.M. on Friday had a bottle of rum on hand. There's always
next week. P.S. Haddock Shoal is full of tinkers now caught a bucket full in about 1/2 an hour using feathers. Dry Scotty wrote: "Capt.Mooron" wrote in message news:WaNCg.1831$395.816@edtnps90...

DANG!!! I got caught for a chore and spent Friday night and Saturday
morning building a kennel while waiting for a buddy dropping by with cash he owed me. Got to Overproof on Saturday afternoon and left on Sunday morning. Got my mooring fees paid for.... dropped a case of beer off for the Water Taxi lads. They'll be keeping an eye on Overproof for me. I got some photos of Mahone Bay testing my new digital camera. http://community.webshots.com/user/overproof Just go to the Photo Journal Album.... Too bad we didn't meet up. I had a bottle of Lambs Navy overproof and a flat of beer. Red cans [Keith's Amber] for the port tack and Green Cans [ Keith's India Pale Ale] for the starboard tacks. I'll be back there on either Friday or Saturday next weekend. Later CM "Dry" wrote in message ... Dropped by C.M. on Friday had a bottle of rum on hand. There's always next week. P.S.

Nice to see a mooring field with mainly sailboats, Mahone Bay looks like a really cool place. John Cairns |

![]() "John Cairns" wrote in message Great pics. Nice to see a mooring field with mainly sailboats, Mahone Bay looks like a really cool place. Thanks John... Yeah, it's a great place to sail as well. Just outside the bay is a semi sheltered region full of islands [they claim over 300] with open ocean just beyond. It's within a daysail of most attractions like Oak Island [Pirate Treasure], Lunenburg [ World Heritage site & home of the Bluenose II] Chester [Chester Race Week], Peggy's Cove and Halifax as well is a day sail away. The town of Mahone Bay is famous and has been well preserved to reflect it's heritage and architecture. Lots of small shops, great restaurants and excellent bars. Nothing like sippin' your first cuppa-jo with scenery like that to gaze on. If you ever make it down this way... let me know. We can arrange for a sail and a beer. CM |
