How sailing can help with the ocean data collection
With the enormous help of our friends Frank, Steve and Raya we are preparing the boat for launch. Refurbishing of the propeller, engine cooling system repair, fuel supply system fixing, bottom scrub, filling, sanding and applying antifouling paint – all must be done before the boat gets in the water.
In the end, after cruising 106 miles on Lake Ontario and St.Lawrance River, we got to the Crysler Park Marina. This is the place of our wintering – after a couple of days of waiting, which we spent sailing and walking along the shore, we hauled the sailboat with the help of a large crane. Now it’s time to prepare the sailboat for the winter.
