Homeport:

Lake of Bays, Muskoka, Ontario

About Me:

I like to be on and around the water - I've a 21 foot Sirius sailboat - plus a bunch of other water craft that probably total about 80 feet at the water line when joined end on end (kayaks, canoes, sailboats, motorboats). Up until the last few years I've mostly been a day sailor and I'm now trying to build up my cruising experience through courses, charters and friends.

I heard about this site from Good Old Boat - and thought I'd check it out. I always enjoy hearing/reading about others adventures and experiences - and maybe I'll have some of my own to add someday.

You will see by my location that I am Canadian. And I offer this you tube video to help explain how we differ from our American cousins...eh:

Current location:

Heading into the long Muskoka Canadian winter - just got the boat tucked away for winter.

Destinations visited:

Not much that's exotic - North Channel, Georgian Bay; Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia; Parry Sound, Georgian Bay; British Virgin Islands; Abacos, Arctic Ocean (but I didn't sail there, I took a ship...as a passenger...just seeing if you're paying attention).

Looking to:

Continue to add to my experience sailing - and meet others who enjoy sailing for fun.

Heading into the winter and planning my escape - a couple weeks in the BVIs - that should help make the winter pass a bit more quickly!
