That's awesome. Glad you had a great time! Nice shots of Raspberry Island lighthouse.

Too bad the schedules did not align; we could have a nice raft-up. Next time!

Looks great. Is that one of the go pro cameras?

Dog friendly marinas

Since last summer we have been testing out every system on the boat. Last weekend it was the barbeque and hot water heat when the engine is running. Next week it will be sailing the islands and overnighting in the marinas with our Brown lab. Do you and Jackdaw have any suggestions for a quiet marina that has nice walking trails nearby? Apostle island marina has a transient slip available but I would not mind exploring some of the other marinas.

Pikes Bay (our home) has quiet transient slips available, and the very nice brownstone trail (1.7 m of old railroad bed) leads from there to downtown Bayfield.

Madeline Island Yacht club also has slips and the whole island is dog-friendly, but the slips and not very quiet.
