Default Fresh water cruising

Here's how the other half lives. All you salties check out my website of a
recent cruise that my wife and I took to the 1000 Islands from our home port
of Sackets Harbor in eastern Lake Ontario.

Beautiful. My father and grandfather both kept boats at Chamount's
CYC and my father currently keeps a Fish class sloop at his place on
Stella Cove, Amherst Island. I haven't been back in a while, but I
have a lot of nostalgia for sailing on Ontario. I remember sitting in
Port Havana, Efate, Vanuatu and thinking that I'd traveled a long way
to get to a place so reminiscent of Eastern Ontario. Of course,
you're more likely to be eaten by sharks (or maybe even Ni-Vanuatu) in
Vanuatu...

Thanks, Tom. Maybe I'll get to Vanuatu someday.

Thanks for that, Steve. Nice pics of places that I have fond memories
of. For my money, in the season NE Ontario has some of the most
pleasant cruising anywhere.

Yes, indeed. I agree, but "in the season" is a crucial qualification. And
the "season" is rather short--mid-June to mid-Sept. Even then we can get
plenty of dodgy weather.

Cheers,

Steve
