The North Channel, 2010
Last summer was supposed to be a trip to the North Channel. Unfortunately, it didn't happen. Next summer it's going to happen.
The plan is to make tracks north as quickly as possible, bypassing many of our typical stops. We'll then spend the better part of a month cruising the North Channel - and Georgian Bay, if time permits.
We're in the process of acquiring the proper charts and chips for that area. Ariel should be pretty much ready for the trip without too much work, so spring fitting out won't be too rigorous. I'd like to have a new jib and staysail ready for the trip, but my time has already been dictated by other responsibilities. Maybe I'll be able to pull it off.
Ariel is doing well under her cover. My dad and I checked on her the other day and, other than a bit of snow on the cover, she's looking good.
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! Best wishes for a Happy New Year.

Maybe we'll see you in the 'Channel. We've now also added the NC to summer cruise itinerary after speaking with a few cruisers an seeing a couple of seminars at Strictly Sail. Let's swap plans/notes/resources at some point. -Kevin (http://www.sailislandbound.blogspot.com/)
