Day 54 WED. JULY 27, 2011
We cruised from Obibway Bay in very windy conditions, but the waves were not more then 1 to 3’ because there was very little fetch. I had a great deal of difficulty putting Glory days into my assigned slip and found an easier one and pulled into it. This boat is such a big sail in any kind of strong wind, I just cannot get control of it. I need to practice before I wreck something. The people at Beacon Bay are wonderful! They had a wine & cheese social for the Loopers and about 18 people attended. The next am they had a session on Georgian Bay charting showing us the highlights of the bay. Later they shuttled us to the local stores, and then hosted a steak BBQ for Loopers. They really gave us first class treatment and the prices for the slip rental came out to about $120 for 2 nights including all that plus very personal service. I am very impressed and would go back in a minute.
