We had the wind behind us so we ran wing on wing down the river about 10 miles to Brockville. Our friend has a home at Hillcrest (the Brockville Narrows) where we will put in for some good food and a nice time hanging out – nice having access to a car and a shower after a couple of days on the “hook” (at anchor). Not sure what we will do for an encore after this – we may stay for a day or head back to the US side.
P.S. We hit 7.5 knots going through the Brockville Narrows – great wind, wing-on-wing and a bit of current and we almost hit the top hull speed for Pas Du Fake.

Great looking at your pics. Take good care of Paul, and say hi!
It’s so sad that Paul Strome looks so unhappy in all of his pictures. Actually – you all look like your having a great time and the pictures are terrific. I (Ian) am just a tad jealous.
Hope the wind stays at your backs for the rest of the trip.
Paul S. – lay off the ceaser salad – you have two friends that have to share the boat with you – and your breath.
Thanks for your comments and encouragement – its nice to know there are people out there enjoying the “ride”.
