Kohti uutta matkaa - Towards the New Trip

Miken kanssa Erie kanava ja 34 (?) sulkua oli purjehduksellisesti helppo. Mina todella nautin joka hetkesta. Toivottavasti Mike ei ollut kovin pettynyt viikkonsa Sixteen Tonns'in miehistona.
Buffalo, NY:sta matka yli Erie jarven oli kiireeton ja helppo. Ainoa merkittava tapahtuma oli kahteen kertaan tapahtunut rannikkovartioston tarkastus.
Kotisatamaan tulo oli mieleenpainuva. Tuntui, etta todella tuli kotisatamaan. Kaikki Lorein, Sarah ja Veronon tervehtivat niin lampoisesti ja ystavallisesti. Kylla Meinke Marina on minun suosikkini.

With Mike, the Erie Canal and its 34 locks was easy cruising.  I enjoyed every moment and hope Mike wasn't very disappointed with his week as Sixteen Tons' crew member.  From Buffalo, NY and across Lake Erie, I wasn't in a hurry and the weather was perfect.  My only notations in my log book were that I was checked twice by the U.S. Coast Guard within two days.

To come to my home port was unforgettable.  All at Meinki Marina, Larain, Sarah, and Vernon greeted me so warmly and heartily.  I have to say Meinki Marina is my favorite.
