Bob! Don't give any secrets away! Tell him that this is one of the world's great places to go sailing and that the entire ocean goes up and down 6' or so around Halifax a couple of times a day without any problems most of the time. Other than that, shhhh!

I'm sure it's a lot more interesting than Lake Ontario but coming from a lake I've never dealt with tides and currents. Is the sailing very challenging out there? Do you haul your boat over winter? I work at OCAD University and I check the job postings at NSCAD pretty often. Nothing yet but I want to stay in higher ed, particularly art & design and Halifax is very appealing. In fact, the east coast in general is very appealing! Steve Suhana, C&C 32 Toronto On Wed, May 15, 2013 at 10:54 AM, Stevan Plavsa <stevanpla...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Bob.
