Thanks to Hugh and Les for an enjoyable evening reminiscing about their non-sailing trip up the Rideau and back last summer
Whether you wanted to get info for such a trip or just wanted a boating fix and enjoy a great boating adventure on a cold winter night , it filled the spot.
Congratulations to Ray and Ian who out bid the crowd and won the right to crew with Les and Hugh as they bring their boats back through the Welland Canal next summer. They will be transiting the Erie Barge Canal next summer (this mastless thing is contagious.)
