We loaded up the boat, and they launched us. Upon launch, we inspected the bottom and found water was flooding into the shaft packing. Norm tightened the packing nut, and we were down to a drop every few seconds. We kept an eye on it for the next week.
The winds were strong. Once launched, we took off quickly, without time to try to dock or wave goodbye. We motored to Sorel and turned left. About an hour after Sorel, we put up the sails.
Nice sail of about 25 miles on the small craft channel to an anchorage between Ile à Aigle and Iles aux Canards, Iles aux Asperges, and Ile Montreal.
Supper consisted of Daniele's fab marinated pork chops.
Nice to be afloat again.
