PIG on FIRE

Today I had the honour of being Honorary Fire Pig.

Captain and Galley Kat gave a Marine Radio course to 15 members of the Hudson Fire Department and two members of Hudson Yacht Club and I helped.

There are now 17 newly certified VHF operators (15 First Responders) that will be on the water this summer and our record of 100% success rate remains intact.

It was a very good day!

 

REFLECTIONS on a SIMPLER LIFE

REFLECTIONS on a SIMPLER LIFE

 

Hi all.  Several months ago we were asked to submit an article for the Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons Spring 2016 edition of The Port Hole.  The piece entitled “Reflections on a Simpler Life”, highlights our adventure aboard R.E.D. last summer.

We are proud to finally be able to share it with you in its entirety in both French and English as it appeared in the April 2016 edition of Canadian Yachting and L’Escale

We hope you enjoy.
