Day 5: Simpsons Point to Quarantine Bay

Mid afternoon and the party is settled in to camp in Quarantine Bay in Barnes Bay. The wind is till blowing 20 knots, though it was a bit less as we sailed or rowed the11 nautical miles to our second last camp.

There were only a few minor spills and swims and fairly cold people by the end   The larger yachts have taken shelter on the opposite side or in the Duck Pond.

The fleet looked spectacular coming the channel with many boats quite close together and accompanied by Yukon and Boxer. The Boxer boys and Riversong and Jenny (the Brissy boys), have failed to join us yet as they took a short detour to Kettering. Wonder why! 

Still hoping for some summer before the raid is over.
