Maps of trip july 11-30

this is a diagram of our near miss on the erie canal when after swimming at point#1 the motor would not start, the wind and current dragged the boat [and anchor] towards the rocks at #2, then 3 as sandy jumped in and tied to a rock while amy and debbie got out the dinghy and tilted up outdrive. then sandy took 300 ft of rope and 2nd anchor to point #4, then 5 on wall toward lock and pulled boat over, whew!!!

below is map of trip stops from 7-11 to 7-26. Niagara falls side trip was by rental car while boat sat at brewerton

this is map of next few days. we caught up with the loopers group after the rendezvous in penetanguishene was over, but caught the 22 boats on a week long flotilla at lunch at famous henrys [an official sea airport] on sunday the 29th
tobermory and the 5 fathom marine park of Canada was great. most pics will have to wait as we used a water proof disposable film camera. there are 22 wrecks of 50-200 foot boats from 1800's and 5-8 are within 10 feet of the surface. i dove on 5 in the harbor about 1/4 mile from the transient dock. maybe some more today...
