Leaving Killarney the water is pretty open (another cold windy rough crossing) until you reach the village of Little Current, which has a one-lane swing bridge that opens on the hour for 15 minutes. Yep, we missed it by 15 minutes, so waited for 45 for the next opening to occur. Then swung right into the North Channel. Floyd is in heaven here...I'm more than a little anxious...water is deep and very rocky...and it seems that there are so many ways to get from one place to the next that the Chart Gods have chosen to NOT give boaters a line to follow. But I like following the lines!!!!!! This is primitive wide open space...you also get to pick where to anchor. They give suggestions...but as we learned the first day, it is good to compare the books. One said Sturgeon Cove was a delightful stop...the other book said don't go there unless you are with a local...rocks at the entrance are an issue. We changed our original intent and settled in Bell Cove...which all books listed as deep and safe...we struggled three times before we could set the anchor..but it was delightful...shared the space with an older racoon...took a dinghy ride to Sturgeon and decided after seeing those below the surface rocks that we'd made a wise choice...
