Winds & Waves & White caps
It’s a beautiful day. The sun is bright and warm, the sky is blue and
clear, the wind is howling and blowing like a "son of a bitch"!
The water is slamming up against the island and, as it turns out, over the
stern of the boat left a little too close to the tide line. Wind and waves
are quite effective in filling a boat with water. Tip effective in my
opinion since I got the pleasure of bailing all that water out. Buckets and
buckets of water bailed as the wind slapped me in the face with cold
November waves. Finally when there was only about 5 litres left I found the
plug, shoved my hand into the water and let gravity drain the rest as we
pulled the boat up past the tree line.
I’ll leave my photo walk for another day, right now I’m sitting by the fire
drying off.
