Currently in Marsh Harbour dropping Bev off to fly home for Christmas.
An absolutely stunning sunset for a farewell last night. Incredible really..

Beautiful, Frank.

Good to see that you have found a sailing pal to share those sunsets and seascapes with.

It's reassuring that in a world filled with distractions and fair amount of ugliness, that you continue to find a way to rise above it and just get out there and do it.

Grog.  :)

The old saying goes
“Never own a boat that you don’t admire rowing away from”
I ordered this old girl at the Toronto Boat Show 38yrs ago next month.
I still admire her!

On a mooring in Black Sound for a few days as winds coming up and temperatures are dropping. Easy walk into town from here.

Town looks lovely at night!

Thank you Frank for the additional fine photos. :)

I was telling one of my sisters about the story of your boat coming back to you, and how you had a larger boat but preferred your former sailboat. I was trying to remember how long ago it was that you had previously owned her. My sister remarked on how clear the water was in the photo with Bev and the skate or stingray.

Nice photos of the night sail and town at night--those scenes often get overlooked...
