Took our handyman out on the boat today.. he deserved it after we sweltered under the blistering 35 degree C sun working on a new front deck for our house and doing repairs to the porch roof.

Started off around 10 am in the Arm and proceeded south to the main harbor.
We ran into a big Japanese cruiser warship coming up the harbor. Went over to it for a looksee but kept a safe distance. We didn't want to instigate an international incident.
Next we headed south to the outer harbour..conditions were perfect with a light mist that made us feel cool and refreshed.
Forgot my GPS so I didn't want to get out too far into the white mist but it felt like we could boat all the wat to the next landfall...Bermuda.

We turned east instead..then north to round a couple of popular unspoiled islands where the local yachy squadron was having a club raft-up.
continued north past the downtown and saw that Japanese cruiser again with what looked like a Japanese navy support ship.
Motored oast our navy dockyard, under the two harbor bridges and into the large Bedford basin where huge convoys would band together for the dangerous WW2 runs to England and Russia.
Rounded the navy degaussing barge and turned back south to re-trace our steps.
Too soon to head back up the arm so we motored out to a nice small pretty fishing cove south of the city, named Herring Cove.
Went up there as far as we could and left to return to our launch area.
beautiful trip.. especially the first hour or so.

My wife says she could use a little 95f. She has been freezing here at
60f.

Sounds like a good ride tho. Great story

That's because 60 is cold!!!
