I can't remember exactly but I believe it was you who had, in an earlier
post, called it: 

 

"Living the dream"

Yesterday, January 1st, we took an Alberta transplant couple on a wee cruise
and toast the points of the compass. This is an unusual Alberta couple in
that they are not overly bothered by the rain... "just dress for it eh". 

We circumnavigated the Protection - Newcastle group and offered toasts to 8
cardinal points of the compass along the way. The warm beverage is boat
coffee (rum & hot chocolate). 

Coming home in the narrow channel near Stones Marina the exhaust mixer
elbow/riser separated from the manifold. Lotsa of noise, smoke and warm
water spraying below. The repair consisted of three types of tape (Gorilla,
wide PVC electrical and self vulcanizing rigging). That wasn't enough to
keep the pieces together so I had to lash the elbow tight to the engine with
small stuff to stop exhaust pressure pushing the mixing elbow aft. We were
able to idle home to the yacht club... no wind in the channel and a contrary
current of course.

A grand day out with a bit of adventure to start the New Year.

        Cheers, Russ
        Sweet 35 mk-1
