Tie Island, Ontario – Little Current, Ontario - July 28, 2008

We were finally able to leave this morning. We were up early and retrieved all 4 anchors fairly easily. By 7:15 we were underway. Because of the 2 lost days of travel we decided to bypass a stop at Killarney and go to Little Current.

Little Current is called Baiwejewung “where the waters begin to flow” by the natives and is the gateway to the North Channel. This is where the North Channel waters are funneled into a passage only 100 yards wide as they empty into Georgian Bay. There are very strong currents here and you need to exercise care when cruising here.

We arrived at Little Current and were docked at 3:15. We are happy to have internet and will be stocking up on groceries tomorrow morning before we leave.
