Sailing Bretwalda from Belmont around Crib and past Navy Pier with Sea Scouts

Captain Bill Luksha, mate Andrew Fisher on Saturday, October 8, 2011

Initial meeting with sea scouts at Corinthian Yacht Club at Montrose Harbor. Bretwalda was NOT THERE! Speaking with the harbormaster, Bill learned that she had been moved to Belonnt Harbor (aBOUT 1 mile south). He told us the dock and entry code. The Scouts drove there but I biked.
