Sarnia ON, Sarnia Bay Marina – Kincardine, ON, Kincardine Marina – Sept 28, 2021
Window maybe…..comfortable not even close. Winds were westerlies. Hitting us beam all day. Our plan was to do a full day to Tobermory, ON. We had no time to doddle at this point because the Captain had been set up for a pickup in The Soo.
Winds and waves were not fun. I call it the Ralph Factor. Today the Ralph Factor was a good and steady 7-8. I didn’t see much as I stayed quietly on the couch waiting for “we’re here” command. Scott doesn’t get seasick so he was fine but even he said it was not a good day. We only made it to Kincardine, ON. Tomorrow was to be a better travel day so we made arrangements at the quaint marina in Kincardine.
It has everything you need. Fuel is a bugger to get into if you have anything over 40 feet. There is no turn around room and the docks and slips are way too tight at the fuel dock. No fuel for us anyway as we did fill up in Sarnia after the storms. We were slipped into the T dock for the night and watched a beautiful sunset. Kincardine has some of the most picturesque sunsets you will ever see.
Unfortunately we are now on a schedule which was something we did not want to do. This border shut down has decided our fate and we will roll with it but it doesn’t mean we have to like it. So a quick overnight stay and an early morning we are headed to Tobermory, ON.
