8 and 9 September 2013 We finally left the marina and Pierre and Martine Juliett and our friend Guylaine were present to drop our moorings. With a good downwind location de ski 30 kn, with only the genoa, we arrived in the Bay Shelburne 18 h 30. The next morning we had an appointment location de ski with the mechanic for a tune-up valves and check engine. They found the engine in good condition. It is reassuring to hear that. Excellent fast service. September 10, 2013 With the south wind was not favorable for us, we arrived in Westport late evening.

We used a big spot to see better. 11 and 12 September 2013 Arrived at Chipman Point, we undressed Pinnacle dismasted. Robert and René have prepared the structure that will support the mast while I was doing laundry ($ 1). Marina location de ski rustic in a beautiful building location de ski dating back to 183x.

September 13 Pinnacle leaves Lake Champlain. We went through 7 locks during the day to finish in Stillwater late afternoon. It is very bastard, moorings are dirty and it drips on the boat. It takes good gloves, gaffs and good arm especially location de ski for the first rising. We were glad to be 3 to pass through the locks, each at his post. We were made pros at the end of the day.
Stop lock awaiting its opening day September 14 The 11 locks are completed, it is gone. We made a stop at TROY for groceries location de ski at Annaford and you would have laughed to see us cross a bridge and walk the streets with a shopping cart, we looked location de ski homeless.
After a big day of sailing, we went to anchor at Coxsackie between two beautiful islands near a Yacht Club. Pork and salad were very popular, location de ski not to mention the ginger cookies.
When we arrived at the Coxsackie scenery was great September 15 This morning the captain made a banana bread. The guys had a great time and it was lunch. Robert says: thank you mom for your recipe.
We expect to be in Catskill PM and matting should be Monday morning first hour. We will reinstall sails and ropes and Pinnacle finally find its wings. The days are long and noisy engine and we look forward to sailing. While browsing, we have small projects and everyone takes the time to do so.
