Father - Son Mini-cruise to Bowers Harbor

Graham and I sailed Cygnet to Bowers Harbor on the night of August 26.  We had a lovely sail, beating out of Suttons Bay, then a run all the way to Bowers.  A quiet night at anchor, except I was driven from my cockpit bunk by a misty rain in the wee hours of the morning.  It cleared off by sunrise and we had a motorsail back to SB.



The last of this weeks fall weather moving out.

Snugged in for the night.  Life is good.

Sand and cobble bottom.  Good holding.

2105 Annual Power Island Sail

This year Anne and Graham came along.  Emma was teaching at the UM Bug Camp, so she could not go with us.
Some fine point of sailing lore shared from Father to Son
