Float Plan for the 2015 Rendezvous
Posted: Mon Jul 20, 2015 8:00 am
Folks
Thought I would publish my float plan for the 2015 Alcanboats Rendezvous in case the other boats coming down the Rideau Canal felt like joining for a flotilla.
Wednesday Aug 12
We plan on leaving Bayview Yacht Harbor (Portland ON on the Big Rideau) in the morning with the objective of getting to or through Jones falls depending on the time of day we arrive. If we can get through the locks we plan on anchoring in Morton's bay. If we don't get through Jones we plan on staying at the top of the lock.
Locks: 8
Distance: 22 miles
Thursday Aug 13
Our target will be to get through Kingston Mills and stay at Cedar Island. If we aren't going to make it through Kingston, we will likely stay at the bottom of Lower Brewers as it is much more pleasant than the top of Kingston Mills.
Locks: 7
Distance: 28 miles
Friday Aug 14
We will be somewhere in the Gananoque area. It is a little hard to predict where we will end up as the islands are busy with boats.
Locks: 0
Distance: 15 miles
Cheers
David
