S/V INTREPID II - Cape Dory Intrepid 40

My photo
Intrepid II is a Cape Dory Intrepid 40 sailboat, hull #2, designed by Chuck Paine and discovered by the Captain in Blue Hill Maine in 2006. The crew are Kelly (Captain) and Carol (Admiral and Blogger). In 2009 INTREPID II embarked on her West Coast journey from Victoria to San Francisco, the Baja Sur Peninsula and into the Sea of Cortez. In 2010/2011, we sailed from Guaymas, south to Bahia Banderas and back. In 2011/2012 we left Guaymas, headed south to La Paz, spent three weeks at anchor on our northward journey and rested on the hard in San Carlos. Her 4th, 5th and 6th seasons were Boat Projects related. Season 7 - an incredible amount of boat work - but no cruising. Season 8 - Tropical Storm Sergio toppled Intrepid II in San Carlos dry storage. A disappointing season of serious and costly repairs. Season 9 - continuing those repairs and still hopeful for cruising.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!


HAPPY 146 YEARS CANADA!

Wherever we travel, it's satisfying to feel a part of this incredible country.  It has always been home for one of us and an adopted home for the other for many years (of course Alberta and Texas respectively will always have the strongest pull).

Wherever this day finds our Canadian friends - hope it is a good one for you as you pause for thought on all the benefits arising from being Canadian.


PS:  and just around the corner - July 4th - a special day for all our American friends - we will be thinking of you.
