Cette année (2017) ce sera le temps de nos 6e vacances en famille à bord de notre voilier, et nous allons continuer de tenir un journal de bord sous forme de blog. Ça nous servira de pratique pour notre projet de long voyage...Bon été!

A little escapade
Just to get back into the rhythm before our summer vacation, a little escapade this weekend; the Borland Race. A yearly event at SYC in honor of one of the yacht club's founding members, this 2 day race is a lot of fun. Even without any wind!
First leg up river to Crysler Park Marina (Upper Canada Village), second leg on the sunday back to SYC.
No wind on saturday - the race was cancelled and everyone motored up. When we got there, our trusty water taxi Scream took us to a lovely little beach across the harbor to cool down. We then had a nice BBQ supper in great company with our friends the Morris and Suffel families.
For the return leg on sunday, a little trickle of wind, it was really slow going, hot and muggy....Some managed to complete it under sail, but we bailed and motored - we were anxious to get back and swim! It was an excellent sunny weekend - my sunburn can attest to it!
