On Sunday we pulled up our anchor and "Buddy Boated" to LITTLE CURRENT. The big news of the day is that there is a heat warning in this region of Canada today! It will be 37 degrees Celsius... A hot one.
LITTLE CURRENT is on Manitoulin Island in Lake Huron, it is the largest fresh water lake island in the world.
After one night in LITTLE CURRENT we pushed off the town dock after breakfast and headed for The BENJAMIN ISLANDS. It was still warm, so the breeze underway on Thistle was very pleasant :)
We are at Latitude fourty-six degrees North here, closer to the North Pole than the Equator!

Our course from BAIE FINE to LITTLE CURRENT - Three hours.
Strawberry Island Lighthouse...
LITTLE CURRENT Swing Bridge - It opens on the hour (we increased speed to 12 knots for 20 minutes) and made it at 10:58 :)
The town of LITTLE CURRENT.
We joined the Little Current Cruisers' Net in person on Monday morning. Eight five boaters from the North Channel checked into the "Boaters Helping Boaters" show this morning.
Roy has hosted the net for 12 years.
Monday we traveled from LITTLE CURRENT to BENJAMIN ISLANDS - Three hours.
We anchored Mediterranean Style (Our bow anchored and stern tied to a pine tree) for the first time!

We went on a long paddle (Red Line) from Thistle (Yellow Dot).
The water here is clear and clean ... A beautiful tropical blue/green color.
