It wasn’t our best crossing, but it was by no means our
worst. The oasis we know as Fury Cove is
always a welcome sight and we have dragged yet another two neophytes (to Cape
Caution crossing) with us. While doing
some nonsensical chatting on the way up, Mike and I started to count all of the
old and new friends that we have shared our adventures upcoast with, including
when we ourselves first starting coming up here, more than 20 years ago. We have now called it something…… The 51.09
club. That is the latitude of Cape
Caution. Below are the members and their
member numbers, they might not be in the exact order as I am going from memory
and my photo log on my back up drive.
We originally were dragged up here by Jack and Elly Senior (Mid
90’s) when we had our last boat, a gas guzzling 34’ Tollycraft called Big
Easy. Along with us were Bill &
Janyce and Wolf & Barb. Since I
named the club and this is my blog, I have taken the liberty of being member

We have had (and will continue to have) great times, lots of
laughs, new experiences in exploring both old and new places and capturing
those Kodak moments of Mother Natures’ splendour with her breathtaking scenery
and beautiful wildlife. Should have
named our boat “Life of Riley”
