I don't know, a cruise of the ports and Brew-pubs of Lake Ontario may
just have that beat (given that the sailing season is only six-months
long).
Our sailing club bar has 5 taps of Micro-brewery products, inlcuding
the true Nectar of the Gods, Wellington Arkell Best Bitter......
Wish I was there right now!
Any other Lake Ontario sailors on the group?

Bruce and Charlene, I do appreciate the offer and may file it away

the temps have reached above bone chilling cold here in the east…
Now if you or anyone else wants to experience THE Absolute Best in
sailing, come on down and out or up (whatever direction you need to
make it here) I will treat you to sailing on The Chesapeake Bay and
we can top it off with some Maryland crabs!

Starwind, is also always afloat in Newport Harbor (CA) and stocked
with Kahlua (unless I have drank it all), Merlot, some type of white
wine, and various beers. I also extend the invite for any East
Coasters craving a winter sail to come on out!

Marc and I have our c27 moored in San Diego Bay. As we are
geographically removed from the Carrabian and the euphoria of the
rum experience, we have found that Napa valley merlot seems to have
the same results experienced by our fraternal cat 27 bros on the
East coast. We do also enhance our libations with peanuts in the
shell. As a footnote to you all on the other coast, you have an
open invitation in the wintertime as The Brown Eyed Girls is always
afloat. Marc and Bruce

A while back -- during the dark cold days of winter - may have even
been before the switch to Yahoo - there was a discussion of a really
important topic. RUM!!!
Well, I have important news to report Y'all must try a shot of
Meyers Original Dark Rum in a highball glass with ginger ale and an
ice cube or two. Nectar of the God's my friends. Guaranteed to
reset your attitude and overcome any stress resulting from your
efforts to get your boat off the hard and onto the water in sailable
condition.
Right now I have my newly purchased '75 Cat 27 nearly ready to go -
got the title transfer problems with the State of New Jersey and the
State of New York just about straightened out - mooring gear all
assembled and now in the river -- redid all the brightwork - new
bottom paint -- will get the hull buffed up tomorrow - scrubbed the
interior-- - '85 Honda 100 outboard is purring like a cat on liver
-- checked out the through hulls - spiffing up the hull and deck --
complete set of new sails -- just cut and assembled the new CDI
roller furler -- will find out if we measured twice and still cut
too short-- but with the help of my friends we will get it installed
this Saturday. BUT - at this moment I have a glass of Meyers and
ginger in hand and life is good.
