On A Mooring off Round Island



Moon Dancer II on a mooring off
Round Island, NS

Left Mahone Bay (Town) this morning in rain. After filling the water tanks at the Civic Marina, we departed the harbour for the scenic run to through the islands of Mahone Bay as I head towards Round Island. Passed many little spots where one could spend a night or two. Upon arrival at Round Island the clouds parted and spent the rest of the day in sun, going for a swim and evening walk on the beach. At dusk the other boats departed for their home ports one by one left leaving the place quiet and peaceful. Usually during the week this is a deserted place. Thanks to a local boater, have access to his mooring on Round Island. Plan to spend a couple nights here.

I began reading another book called "Sailing A Serious Ocean" by John Kretschmer.  The Boat Locker in Lunenburg is bringing this author in to speak in late August, would be worth the trip to hear him.

If the weather holds a sail is planned out to another Mason Island on Wednesday to check out an anchorage at a nice beach.
