Ep 10: Worst storm in over 40 years. HURRICANE force winds threaten our sailboat with disaster.
In this episode of Towards the Adventure, we’re not quite done wrapping our sailboat for the winter when a 2 day storm hits us. Winds over 140kph/80mph shake our boat and have us rolling heavily while tied to the dock. Things fall over, and we’re on edge as the storm intensifies. While other boats are being tipped off their cradles, we work furiously to patch holes in our cover in the middle of the worst storm to hit in over 40 years.
Towards the Adventure
Towards the Adventure is the epic and ongoing story of our exciting move to a sailboat, a Whitby 42 Ketch located in Lake Ontario for now, and wherever the wind takes us. Follow us as we sail our yacht SV Northern Reach, and engage in all of the other activities that we love: skiing, diving, travelling, motorcycling, flying, and many other general adventures.
