Becoming Crew

Hanging the dingy

We joined Zingara in Port Stanley with enthusiasum and excitement. After a 2 hour train ride, we were anxious to meet the MacDonald's and get on the water. We meet at the train station, happy to relive the trip from Georgian Bay to Port Stanley. The excitement mounted. We decided to stay an extra night to catch up with the crew at "Port" and we were off early Tuesday morning to catch the 6 am bridge. Dressed in our foulies, we headed out. We were on watch all morning looking out for fishing nets, gas wells and logs. By 2 pm, we were stripped down to our shorts and t-shirts, by 5:40pm we landed in Port Dover pulling in to the Harbour Marina and greeted by the staff that went that extra mile to make us comfortable. Not only did we get a great spot but we were also provided a ride to the LCBO as it closed at 6 pm. They also provided laundry soap for us the next day. Port Dover Rocks!! We stayed 2 nights to reprovision and to have the World famous Perch dinner at the the Erie Beach Hotel. We left Thursday morning heading to our next adventure being the Welland Canal. Stay tuned......
