The weatherman played a trick on us. Yesterday's forecast of clear skies for this evening's trip never materialized. Instead, grey skies blew in on the southeast wind. But no matter! We sailed out close-haul past the Shagwong buoy then enjoyed the long downhill slide back to Culloden Point and around into Fort Pond Bay.

Part of our 2 week vacation in the waters of British Columbia - we made our way to Desolation Sound. The farthest north we ventured was to the Octopus Islands, anchoring there for a night. The trip in was beautiful passing through The Whole in the Wall passage at slack tide. The hike trailhead was a quick dinghy ride away to Waiatt Bay. The trail to Newton Lake took us about an hour to get up to the top with a few scrambles on the way up. Everything was well maintained and the DIY nature of the signs was picture perfect - they were a big help. The lake water was warm and clear. We got there in the late afternoon so the sun was hitting just right. This was the highlight of the trip for the kids - until we arrived at Prideaux Haven the next day!

The Windelo 50 has recently been upgraded with a fresher, sleeker look. 10 pics from @windelocatamaran ▫️ The first of the new catamarans, a 50 Yachting, splashed on July 24 2023 and will be making an appearance at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September 2023. Head to 'kats.co/nuwin' or our profile link for more info. ▫️ Katamarans.com will be joining the Windelo team on their delivery trip from the Windelo Base in Canet-en-Rousillion near Perpignan to the Côte d’Azur. We can’t wait to see the new design in action firsthand! If you have questions about this ECO catamaran before the sail, let us know in the comments 👇below and we will ask the Windelo team while they are watching the telltales! ▫️ The New Windelo 50 has had a substantial design upgrade with a team effort from her naval architects (Christophe Barreau and Frederic Newman), designer (Charlotte Schiffer), and the Windelo engineering office. ▫️ The new design includes upgrades to the decks, superstructure, the roof and a reworking of the layout. ▫️ So now the boat holds even more solar (up to 5,680W) while optimizing weight thanks to a simplified composite assembly manufacturing process. ▫️ The aft deck has been enlarged to provide a more comfortable living space, even better protected from the sun and weather. ▫️ The New Windelo 50 Yachting can now accommodate up to 5,680 W solar panels for even greater autonomy and zero emissions while motoring on her electric engines. ▫️ The Windelo team will be presenting the New Windelo 50 Yachting at the Cannes Yachting Festival from September 12 to 17. We’ll be closely covering the show and the trip to Cannes on the Katamarans network, so stay tuned for more information. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #eco #sustainable #yacht #performance #design #baotshow #sailing
