Heading West

Entering Lunenburg Harbour

I’ve been hanging out locally for a few days.  Got some groceries and did some laundry. Great as always to see Ruth and Jim in Deep Cove.  I was on their dock last night, and today Jim helped me get some needed repairs done. I now have hot water. 

Tonight I’m anchored in Lunenburg Front Harbour.   Pleasant calm evening.  A big hurricane is forecast to go by well offshore later this week, but for now it’s good traveling weather.  Tomorrow I head SW down the shore.

My plan is to follow the NS shoreline around the tip and towards the Minas Basin.  Yarmouth is my next major port of call. I’ve never been there.

My rough plan is to travel the coastline to the US border, then backtrack to St John.  From there I’ll head up the St John River as far as I can.  Then back to NS for the winter.

Pics have been light because I splashed another phone a week ago.  I’m pretty much sorted now, though I’m a little disappointed that I’ve been unable to get a new esim without receiving a text message or visiting the nearest store 80 km away.  I really thought I had full remote recoverability.  Not quite, apparently.

Apart from the next 80 miles or so this is all new territory for me.  I’m starting to get excited.  I have some open guest slots, for those interested in joining me. 

Some boat pics.  The Tancook Island Ferry, new J40(2), Farr 56(2), a cute Crosby Tug(?)(2), and a Nordhavn that is actually quite attractive.
