Finding disc golf amongest the islands

Jokes were running when we left the dock with what would happen to a boat full of engineers and so another cruising adventure began with a night sailing in amongst the Gulf Islands to our first anchorage. We had a great wind for night sailing blowing 15 to 20 knots giving us reach towards Pender Island at about 8kts boat speed. Seb was a fantastic deck hand trimming the sails like a pro.
The motley crew for this adventure include Pat (the Aussie Wanderer), Seb (my cousin), Andras (rowing buddy from Fort Mac) and me Sailor Spilly.

The next day the crew ended up finding a disc golf course in amongst the tree, which lead to a great adventure finding our way by disc from one basket to the next. There were a few forays into the forest to find wayward discs to add to the fun.

It may not be a row boat but the rowing team still powered around the bay in the kayak
