- We just beat a good storm with 50 knot winds into Bay of Islands, and take shelter in Wood's Island Harbour and then dock at Bay of Islands Yacht Club. We explore Corner Brook and do some re-provisioning before sailing up to Goose Arm to anchor and do some hiking & swmming. From our final anchorage for this season at Lark Harbour we set out to walk to Little Port to see their famous orange dories. Jayne models her nice orange life jacket!
We would haul-out and over winter our Niagara 35 sloop Phantasia with the friendly assistance at the Bay of Islands Yacht Club.
Part 2 coming up covers sailing up and around the top of Newfoundland then down the east coast to Lewisporte.
Love to see my beautiful hometown Lark Harbour
We hope to get back there, maybe this season
At 6:57 if you look behind the camera, up over the hill you will see my family's cabin in Goose Arm❤My mom is from Lark Harbour and I spent a lot of time there. I lived on the Northshore. Glad you were able to visit and see these beautiful spots in the Bay of Islands that I call home!
We loved Goose Arm, an absolutely magical place !
This place is on my bucket list. Summertime I'm quite sure it's awesome. Wintertime? Too cold for me.
Just caught up with you on yt. Loved your cruise on west coast of nfld. Now you know why we love the place
Grew up in St John's and now cruise around Mahone Bay and sw NS on Landfall 38
Will search out your water colours
Thanks very much, we’ve cruised NS too, see Down East Circle, maybe be back there this summer if we are allowed into NL, it’s been locked down this season.
Was wondering what type of sailboat do you have. I see she's a cutter rig .. Love your video
That’s our old boat Phantasia in that video, a 1978 Niagara 35, new boat now if you see our latest playlist
Great video. You have inspired me to sail there. Great scenery and unspoiled cruising ground. I have looked,at the bay of islands club as a,possible winter layover. Our draft is 5'10". Do you think that is possible for hauling out there. Corner brook looks like a great place to spend time getting ready. Will be watching the next installment. Fair winds
Thanks! We loved BOI, our Niagara was 5’3” draft, contact them about 5’10” draft. We built a wooden storage cradle, maybe they have jack stands rental now? Beautiful, amazing sailing there, Goose Arm is one not to miss. Corner Brook has everything you need too.
Mike
Thanks Mike. I will have yo watch your first voyage there as well. And the ones in the nayad as well. Look forward yo seeing more video. Cheers
@@magdakaniewski Maybe we’ll see you out there in NL, our boats in Lewisporte if your out that way
Yeah definitely. We were planning to go south last year, but with border closures and uncertainties we were think of going to explore Atlantic Canada. Are you there for just this season or long term?
@@magdakaniewski We are planning to cross to the Azores and then EU but I don’t think we can do that this season so we’ll try and get to our boat by June and sail Notre Dame Bay if possible, depart Azores in 22?
