Aug 13, 2007 . . . Little Current to John Island

We departed Little Current on our way to John Island. A cool 66 degrees, clear skies and wind NNW at 5.


Not the best picture, but on the way to John Island we had to pass through "Detroit Inlet" which is just wide enough for ONE boat. A security call was made and passage was without incident. Arriving at John Harbor we tried to anchor . . . wind was so strong and the bottom was flat rock . . . could not get a hold at N46-08.206 W082-36.774 so we left for a cove North of the small boat channel behind Parsons Island.


When we anchored in our new cove we completed a "Med-Moor" to a tree on the bank. Bonnie tied the knots in the lines . . . and we remained steady during the evening.


The evening became and affair with the Loons. Two, then three, then four came and fished, swam, around the bow of SONATA. They sang to eachother and entertained us for more than 3/4 of an hour. Felt like we were "On Golden Pond".
