We enjoy some cold beers as we do a bit of boat polishing in bikini. Could spring actually be here? Then it's time to apply the antifouling paint because we're going back into the water at the end of the week. We are so looking forward to this after these long months of Canadian winter. An...
Never a dull day on the hard, especially when you suit up to start sanding our boat for bottom paint. Then realize you look like a smurf before grabbing a cold beer. Unfortunately we are still waiting for Lake Erie to melt but it gives us more time to tackle some projects. From installing our 2000 w...

This November 2018 crazy storm on Lake Erie will be remembered. We experience some intense flooding with the storm surge and 50-60 knots wind. Who knew waves could get that big on a lake. And after the storm it's time for our sailboat to haul out. And it's not the nicest day as we wake up ...
