Return to WhimSea's Home Port.
Posted by Karen A. Brown Luckily, we were able to get our headsail problems resolved prior to Theresa’s planned trip aboard. We intended to show her the Apostle Islands from close up. We left Saturday morning after loading Theresa’s gear and provisions aboard. Though we made several attempts at sailing there, much of our wind was variable and could not support shutting off the engines. We eventually made it to Sand Island and Lighthouse Bay where we intended to stay for the evening. The sunset was beautiful and we even caught a glimpse of deer making their way along the shoreline. We spent part of the next day traveling around the islands and trying to decide where to spend the night. We decided on Oak Island given the winds. We did get an opportunity to touch land and create some fire. We spent the long weekend sitting back and enjoying beautiful weather and beautiful islands, good food and good company. We were favored with a relatively uneventful return sail on the Fourth of July. The only event that was remarkable was the Coast Guard call for a water hazard around Two Harbors. They were reporting a tree in the water. We kept a look out for it, but didn’t see it. On our return to the marina we got an additional treat. Those at the marina that were staying overnight organized an informal beach party complete with fireworks and large fire. We had a good time and were all very relaxed at the end.
