In the background you can see Jeff and Elaine Lane's 65 Roses with the mast already up.
This year there are 3 Catalina 25s at our pier, 65 Roses, Leprechaun, and our Evenstar.
One of our early sails this year was to Put-In-Bay and as we were approaching the harbor we got a nice view of the Brig Niagara as she was passing Middle Bass Island...
Below we are on a mooring in front of Gibraltar Island...
We were moored at Put-In-Bay on a Monday in July and the local yacht club was preparing for their Junior Regatta. Here are the boats waiting to hit the bay.
Perry's Victory and International Peace Memorial National Monument finally re-opened this year after major renovations. This provided a great view of the harbor, docks, and one of the regattas in the distance.
While in the bay we got a close look at this yacht - looks about as big as The Boardwalk...
Daughter Allison was able to take one item off of her bucket list for the summer when she anchored out over night with us - just looking for a good spot to drop the hook.
We also spent a night at the state park docks on Middle Bass Island. The new visitor center is now open and is quite nice.
This year we finally added a dinghy (a used Achilles with a 2hp Yamaha) so that we could easily get ashore when anchoring in locations such as Kellys Island. It tows nicely behind us...
More season to go!
