Launch happened on June 20th followed on the same day by mast up. We did not paint the bottom this year and she did not suffer from that.
It was a weird summer weather wise and we only sailed 10 times which is 3 times more than last year! In July it was very, very hot and we could not even stand being on the water. So we went out 4 times in July, 5 in August and once in September. Considering we also had 3 funerals in about 5 weeks, 2 weddings (May and August), a trip to Trois-Rivières and Québec City in August and a few days in Picton in September, we did pretty well! Oh and also the birth of Dave's grandson on July 5th!!

My goddaughter Kathleen started taking sailing lessons this summer and came out one day with her parents. I think she is a natural!!

| At the bow, afraid of nothing! |

| Me with Yanjie, Kathleen's mother. |
On our last sail of the season, we encountered our mooring neighbour who was able to take a picture of us sailing along.
On October 3rd we took our mast down and that of our neighbour. Here they are ready for haulout.

| That's what the bottom looks like when she comes out of the water. |

| Getting covered for the winter. |

| Oops William is not happy that the season is over (wearing another sailor outfit from grammy!!) |
