Since Jim and I got our first boat onLake Superior in 2004 we have

talked about sailing to Isle Royale IsleRoyale is a US National Park in the stateof Michigan and is the largest island onLake Superior at 45 miles long and 9miles wide Isle Royale is surrounded byhundreds of islands isles bays and har-bors While Jim and I have completedshorter passages of 60 miles or so IsleRoyale at around 120 miles from ourhome cruising grounds remains to beconquered and by August of 2008 wewere ready We joined up with two otherboats from our marina and made ourpreparations On August 14 we wereready Emmanuel our 1995 HunterLegend 405 was full of provisions waterand fuel After a short skippers meetingon Saturday with the crew and skippers ofZaBreNa and Montebelau at the PikesBay Clubhouse and a top off at the fueldock we were on our way It was 1030 inthe morning and the sky was clear and thebreeze nonexistent As we exited PikesBay our home port Jim throttled up toabout 2800 rpm a comfortable cruisingspeed for Emmanuel and we all settledback to enjoy the ride By 230 pm wehad cleared Outer Island and were rapid-ly leaving the Apostle Islands and ourflotilla behind The day was still sunnyand warm and we were all comfortable inshorts and t-shirts Our crew Ray andJolene Boyd had sailed with us before butnot on Emmanuel so we spent some timemaking sure they knew were importantthings were like the safety gear thruhulls flashlights and my cinnamonbabka It was around this time that Raypresented me with a present he hadbought for me My very own head lamp

One of the best seats on Emmanuelis the bow pulpit seat Late in the after-noon I was comfortably ensconced therewhile we continued under power througha perfectly calm lake Off in the distanceI could see a freighter in the shippinglane heading to the Upper PeninsulaLooking ahead I could not see any shore

line and looking behind the ApostleIslands had disappeared and I realizedthat now I was committed For just amoment I quailed at the prospect of con-tinuing I am at best a reluctant adventur-er and I wasnt sure I was up to the chal-lenge A burst of laughter from the cock-pit and I turned to see Ray Jim andJolene smiling happily and I felt com-forted I turned back to the lake andwatched its placid face as the distanceslid by Emmanuels hull The bow wakechuckled happily to itself but I knew bet-ter than to let myself be lulled by itsbanality The Lake is a lady of manymoods and I knew this wouldnt last

By early evening the crew is gettinghungry so I got busy in the galley andwithin a short while everyone is tuckinginto steaming bowls of my homemadebeef stew By 800 pm dusk isapproaching and we get set to watch afabulous sunset and are not disappoint-ed It is clear to us all by this time thatwe are going to be making landfall inthe dark since we hugely underestimat-ed our speed under motor By 900 pmwe are less than 20 miles from the

entrance to Grace Harbor and we dis-cuss our options We could alter courseand head north to Rock Harbor but thatway we miss rendezvousing with the

Emmanuel at dusk-Windigo Photo by Jolene Boyd

At about 1130 pm CT Jim calls forthe sails to be doused He fires up theYanmar and turns Emmanuel into thewind and Ray and I realize we are in forit The wind is screaming through the rig-ging and we are now bow on to seas thatare easily 6 feet I clip on my tether andmake my way forward I say a silentthank you to Jim because I am so gratefulwe had our new UK Stack Pak installedthis year Wrestling a 900 square footmainsail down the mast is never easy buthaving our Stack Pak makes collectingthe beast a lot easier However tonight itmeans I still have to go up the mastbecause the wind is keeping the head-board pinned about 10 feet above theboom Emmanuels bow is rising andfalling on the steep waves and I have adeath grip on her mast One particularlyviolent drop throws me backward whilefor one second my hands are busy tryingto undo the shackle on the headboard Igrab the mast in time but my heart ispounding In between the bucking andheaving I manage to pull the sail downthe rest of the way and stuff it in the Stackpak I climb down and make my wayback to the cockpit on shaky legs Just asI get back to the cockpit I hear a flappingnoise at the same time I hear a cry fromJolene I turn towards the bow and realizethat the headsails furler line had worked

its way loose and the jib is now unrollingRay jumps on the line and starts rollingthe sail back in but because of the pres-sure on the sail he cannot roll the last bitin and it is enough to pull the bow overSo this time both Ray and I clip back inand make our way forward with bungeesin hand On our knees we work on secur-ing the sail but every time the bow fallsRay and I go airborne which makes wrap-ping up the jib a challenge When it isfinally secure we both pause before head-ing back to the cockpit again and as Iwork my way down starboard I hear Raywhooping every time Emmanuel buriesher bow again The maniac is having agreat time Now that we are somewhatunder control Jim at the helm has tocarefully time turning Emmanuel off thewind to keep us from getting swampedOnce we have the wind behind us we flytoward the Grace Harbor entrance and bymidnight central we are in the lee ofCumberland Point We all take a deepbreath and I am starting to relax when Irealize that the shore around us looksreally rocky Luckily the full moon lightsour way somewhat but Ray and Jim arewatching the chartplotter intently Prettysoon Jim puts Ray on the helm and headsforward with a spotlight We are lookingfor the passage between WashingtonIsland and Grace Island and it seems that

we are on the right course when trying tosneak through a narrow channel wezagged when we should have zigged andwe are aground I feel the dreaded bumpof hull on rock while I am on the bowstarting to pull the anchor rode out of theanchor locker I race back to the cockpitwhile uttering some very unladylikewords Of course I am frantic but Jim andRay are as calm as always I look at thedepth meter and see our depth is showingas 3 ft This causes another outburst fromme Jim instructs me firmly to sit downand be calm We are in no danger at themoment Bump bump Emmanuel bobsgently on the rocks we are sitting on Jimtakes the helm from Ray and tries to driveher off but no luck The wind is comingstraight on our nose and the shallowwater we are in is getting choppy Jimcontinues to try to work us loose but weare firmly stuck Even in the midst of myoverwhelming feeling of impendingdoom I cant help but notice how awe-somely beautiful this place is The moon-light paints the entire scene with a softsilvery glow that lets me see that we arestuck on the point of either Washington orBarnum Island The wind blows gentlyand the channel we are facing glitters inthe moonlight Jolene and I move as weare directed hoping our weight shift willhelp but it does not Jim and Ray talkabout putting the dinghy in to try to kedgeoff but after a bit Jim turns the helm overto Ray with instructions to drive it likeyou stole it By now the wind has pickedup a bit and Emmanuel is rising andfalling in the short waves Ray finds therhythm and throttles quickly when thewaves lift the bow slightly and all of thesudden we are free Jolene and I arewhooping and hollering and jumping upand down We run back to the cockpit andjump up and down some more and hugthe boys and then we are on our wayagain carefully Within about 2 boatlengths we are back in 60 feet of waterand Ray marvels aloud that its a stupidplace for a rock pile We quickly find ourway to a sheltered spot in about 16 feet ofwater behind Barnum Island and we getthe anchor down and set I sit on deck fora few minutes while the rest of the crew

heads below I can see that the shorelineis heavily wooded and the full moon castsits silvery light over our safe havenWhen I turn and look to starboard I cansee the channel opening to the lake butwe are quite protected I join the rest ofthe crew below and realize that it is nowabout 130 am and everyone is way toowired to sleep I make some hot cocoaand slice up some babka and pretty soonthe adrenaline wears off and everyone issleepy enough to head for bed I fall into

a deep sleep but wake after a couple ofhours because the wind has come up Ipad barefoot through the cabin and stickmy head out the companionway and seeIsle Royale at first light It is an overcastmorning and the wind has piped up butour anchorage is still fairly quiet so I goback to bed A couple of hours later Iwake again with another wind increaseand now its about 7 am I grab a jacketand the camera on my way to the cockpitAfter a few minutes Jim joins me and we

talk quietly It has started raining but weare staying dry under the bimini We areboth awestruck by the scene around usThe channel to Windigo is visible as areGrace Island and Thompson Island

Pretty soon Ray and Jolene are upand we have a leisurely breakfast Bymid-morning we hear a hail fromZaBreNa and find out she is at Windigodock along with Montebelau Within ahalf hour we have the anchor up and aremotoring down Windigo channel Whenwe arrive we find space for Emmanuel onthe leeward side of the dock so Jimcoaches Ray on how to land her I throwa bowline to Bill who makes it snug onthe bollard and then Ray puts her inreverse which lets her stern swing over toland her gently against the dock We man-age to pull off this impressive bit of boathandling in front of a ferry full of passen-gers who I tell myself are suitablyimpressed We smile like we do this allthe time We spend the next hour or sochatting with Dick Joe and Bill fromMontebelau and with Dave Jim Bill andAl from ZaBreNa We trade stories aboutour crossing and what happened and whatwe did There is lots of laughter and whileeveryone is visiting I nip below and fill aplatter with brownies and cookies andtake it back up to the hungry crews Bylunchtime ZaBreNa and Montebelau castoff but we decide to stay the night Wespend the rest of the day exploringWindigo picking wild raspberries andthimbleberries and checking out the visi-tor center which is really cool It is a verymodern place and has lots of displays ofthe local fauna and vegetation There arefull scale displays of moose and wolfwhich I find fascinating There is also aFresnel lens which came from the Rockof Ages Lighthouse There is a largeselection of books and charts and Raybuys and makes me a present of a newchart of Isle Royale since mine is at homein the basement For dinner we have freshLake Superior whitefish fillets I placethe fillets on pieces of foil then drizzlethem with butter and sprinkle with saltand pepper I top them with slices of freshlemon These packets go on the grillalong with skewers of fresh vegetables I

have marinated in olive oil and herbs Itdoesnt take long for the feast to disap-pear After dinner Ray takes the dinghyout for a row and I wander the dock visit-ing with the neighbors Its funny but I geta lot of comments on Emmanuel since Iam talking mostly to fishing boats andsmall power cruisers We are easily thelargest vessel at the dock and peopleseem fascinated by her size Eventually Iend up sitting at the end of the dockdrinking coffee The evening light isbreathtakingly golden and the perfectlycalm waters of Windigo Harbor gleam inthe approaching dusk as nightfall comessoftly

On Sunday morning Jim decides weneed to top off the water tanks This turnsout to be quite an undertaking since itinvolves moving the boat borrowinghose and running it about 100 feet up ahill Jolene and I leave it to the men to fig-ure it out and we head to the showers towash our hair By the time we get backJim is satisfied that the tanks are full andsoon we are on our way Jim hands thehelm to Ray and then they discuss ourexit Ray keeps an eye on the chartplotterand Jolene reads the paper chart Jim andI are on bow watch and we sneak pastGrace and Washington Island I watchwith trepidation as we creep through 7-9

foot depths while passing some reallynasty looking boulders but we manageand soon we are out of the harbor androunding Cumberland Point There is aslight breeze so we hoist the main but itdies off within the hour so we are back tomotoring but it is no great penance for itis a another stunner of a day Clear blueskies lots of sun and very pleasant tempsThe lake has only a slight chop and man-ages to appear friendly as we motor northalong Isle Royales southern shore Ournext waypoint is Houghton Point and wehave it in sight by lunchtime We round itand soon find ourselves in Siskiwit BayLunch that day is my homemade chickensalad and we all eat in the cockpit and letOtto do the steering By now the breezehas freshened and we are flying alongwith the wind on our quarter on the mainonly while the crew happily eats lunch Acouple of chicken jibes later we arebeginning our approach to Malone BayJim is on the helm and Jolene calls out thecourse from the chart After locating andpassing through the first set of channelmarkers we turn to starboard and head forthe next set that will take us into MaloneBay After passing through the channelwe start to head to Malone Bay dock butit is already occupied so instead we makeour way to Malone Island The water is

deep but we are able to creep in close toshore and get the anchor down in about15 feet of water Malone Island gives usexcellent protection for everything butnorthwest but with the wind blowingpretty steady out of the southeast we arequite comfortable Once the anchor isdown Jim lowers the dinghy off the davitsand we are ready to head to shore Oncewe leave the protection of Malone Islandwe get the full force of the 12-15 knotbreeze as we head for the Malone Baydock There is a one foot chop in the bayand Jim has his hands full not flipping thedinghy We all get a little wet but that isthe worst of it Once ashore we are able toquickly locate the trailhead to SiskiwitLake The well worn path takes us alongthe shore and then cuts to the right It isnot a long way and soon we are climbinga small hill and when we get to the top ofit there it is Siskiwit Lake a lake in themiddle of an island in the middle of alake We all stand there marveling at itThe shore is pebbly and the lake liesthere blue and peaceful in the afternoonsun We wander the shore and we takesome pictures A bit more exploring andwe find the Siskiwit River This littleriver tumbles out of Siskiwit Lake andruns cheerfully over a small waterfall Itwas a strange feeling to stand at the shoreof the river and look up to Siskiwit lakeThe elevation difference is quite markedand is a surprise to me

Eventually we wander back to thetrail and make our way to the dinghyAnother harey ride across the bay and weare back aboard Emmanuel By this timeit is late afternoon so I put together someappetizers to quiet the growling stom-achs I mix up my spicy pepper jam withcream cheese and we eat it on crackersand chips We all sit in the cockpit in thewarm sun and smile smugly at each otherOther than a couple of campers ashore wehave not seen another soul since we leftWindigo Harbor early that morningEverywhere we look is beauty that makesyou heart hurt and your throat tightenThat is until Jim decides its time to takea shower right off the stern The rest of usare too comfortable to move so we staywhere we are and Ray and Jolene care-

fully avert their eyes By the time Jim isdone with his shower everyone is yawn-ing so we all head for our bunks for ashort nap Dinner is late in the eveningand my marinated lamb chops grilled justuntil done and served with a reducedglaze of honey garlic and balsamic vine-gar and fresh green beans is a perfect endto a perfect day

Much later after the dishes are donewe dig out the charts and our cruisingguide and discuss our plans for the nextday We are planning to head for RockHarbor so Jim turns on the VHF andtunes in to NOAA to get the weatherRight about this time I decide to take aturn on deck to check our swing andanchor set As I step out into the cockpitthe scene before me is so beautiful I haveto sit down for a bit The moon is nowfully up and all around me is bright asday Tucked behind Malone Island we aresheltered from the big lake but we are justa short distance from the shore ofSiskiwit Bay With Emmanuels bowpointing almost due west as I sit in thecockpit I can see Ross and Fisher IslandsThe waters ofMalone Bay gleamin this frosted lightand I am happy tojust sit and watchJust then in themidst of this rever-ie a flash catchesmy eye I turn myhead quickly andsee that the north-west sky is filledwith lightningWhen I go belowagain Jim Ray andI discuss the fore-cast of expected15-25 knot windsout of the west towhich we are a bitexposed I updatethem on the weath-er and we bataround the idea ofsetting a secondanchor but decideto wait and see

what happens I have a fair amount ofconfidence in our Bruce and we haveplenty of swing room We all head for bedshortly after Banging thunder and a driv-ing rain wakes me at about 2 am We hadleft some hatches open for ventilation soJim and I hurriedly shut them and I headto the cockpit to rescue the Garmin chart-plotter After stowing it below I wait outthe storm and make myself some cocoa topass the time By 300 am it has blownitself out and I take my cocoa and mynew headlamp to the cockpit This thingmakes reading at night a breeze The airis balmy and with the passing of thestorm the skies are clear and the night isthick with stars Pretty soon Im yawningand I head back to bed for a few morehours of sleep

Monday morning dawns bright andclear but we can see by the chop inMalone Bay that the wind has piped upagain For breakfast that morning I makeJolene my double cinnamon French toastI soak thick slices of French bread in arich egg cream maple syrup cinnamonand butter mixture After soaking I grill

the slices on the griddle and serve withwarm syrup and thick sliced bacon Whenbreakfast is done and the dishes arewashed its time to go Our destinationthis day is Rock Harbor which is about 30miles further up the south shore of IsleRoyale After warming up the diesel weget the anchor back on board and head forthe channel out of Malone Bay Onceclear we discuss our sail plan for the dayThe wind is really blowing and wealready have about two feet of chop Wedecide to go with a single reef in the mainand part of the jib rolled out Once hoist-ed we fall off to a starboard tack andbecause the wind is out of the southeastwe dont have a lot of sea room to allowus to sail lower than a close reach so wesettle in for the ride across Siskiwit BayIt is this kind of weather that shows whata stellar performer Emmanuel is underchallenging conditions As the miles slideby under her hull the wind and wavescontinue to build By lunchtime we are insome serious 6 footers and it is a hardslog but Emmanuel simply leans into itand shoulders her way through maintain-ing a respectable 7 plus knots Helm dutyrequires serious concentration and warmheadgear Even though the temps are eas-ily in the 60s it is chilly in the wind Byearly afternoon I head down to the galley

and dish up leftover pasta salad andchicken salad for lunch Apparently con-ditions have not dampened appetitessince it all quickly disappears Shortlyafter lunch we are approaching ChippewaHarbor and I easily spot the daymark forthe entrance and we know we dont havemuch farther to go An hour or so later weround Saginaw Point and are heading forMiddle Island Passage our entrance toRock Harbor About this time Jim fires upthe diesel to help our pointing so we dontlose a lot of ground The Yanmar is chug-ging happily along at cruising speedwhen suddenly the RPMs drop from theusual 2800 to about 1000 Jim and I lookat each and I shrug my shoulders Jimadvances the throttle again and a momentlater the RPMs come back up We makeit to Middle Island Passage and just as weenter Rock Harbor we spot Montebelauheading out We chat for a few momentson the VHF and wave good bye as theyhead out to Chippewa Harbor Just a fewminutes later the diesel does the samething The RPMs fall off and then comeback up It happens twice more during thethree miles we travel to Rock Harbormarina and it leaves Jim and I feelingsomewhat spooked

The first thing we do is stop at thegas dock to top off fuel (diesel is over $6a gallon) pump out the holding tankand arrange for an overnight slip Whilethe boys are taking care of these thingsJolene and I hop off and head for thebathrooms When we come back I walk aways down to check out what slip I wantWhile a few of the slips have the length toaccommodate Emmanuel I am worriedabout the depth I finally find one with aport side tie up and I go back to tell JimI am happy to see that we are just twoslips away from Dan on Seahawk Wehad last seen Dan and his crew atWindigo on Saturday We exchange hel-los and chat for a few minutes

Within a short while Emmanuel istucked up safely in her slip and Ray andJolene decide to head out to do someexploring They take the dinghy and headover to Raspberry Island Jim and I stayon board and spend some time relaxingShortly after Ray and Jolene leave we are

surprised to see ZaBreNa pull into the gasdock so we head over for a quick visitDave and his crew are planning on spend-ing the night in Tobin Harbor but weagree to touch base in the morning beforeheading out By the time Ray and Jolenecome back it is time for appetizers whichwe eat on shore while we enjoy the love-ly evening Finally I throw some steakson the grill and sauteacute some mushrooms inbutter Along with the big juicy stripsteaks we have fresh cruditeacutes and breadwarm from Emmanuels oven This feastrequires the four of us to take a walkdown to the Rock Harbor Lodge after weclean our plates It is easy to see that allthe guests must have a fabulous view Wecheck out the gift shop peek in somewindows and pretty soon wander back toEmmanuel It is another beautiful eveningand the tranquil basin that is Rock Harborgleams pearl like in the early eveningThe air is soft and is lightly cool againstmy skin When we get back to the boatwe debate the idea of showering on shorebut the thought of paying $6 for a 5minute shower leaves us all opting forwash ups on board All the fresh air andsailing has worn Jolene out and shecrawls into her bunk early Jim Ray and Istay up longer for coffee and dessert andwe discuss the days events including thediesel problem It seems reasonable toassume that the problem may be gunk inthe fuel filter and decide that will be thefirst place we look in the morning

Tuesday morning is warm andsunny Since I always sleep sounder whenwe are in harbor it is after 8 am before Istumble out and the rest of the crew is upalready Jim and Ray are just comingback from Tobin Harbor where theyhiked over to see if ZaBreNa was thereShe was not so they try to raise her on theVHF but no luck Thankfully Jolene hasthe coffee made and I huddle with my cupuntil my sleep fogged brain clears Aquick breakfast and it is time to get towork We pull the engine cover off andwith me reading the diagram out of theservice manual we locate the fuel filterOnce it is removed we pour its contentsinto a jug and find that about half of it issludge Next we locate the Racor filter

and clean that also and then we discoverthe sealing O-ring is bad Ray and Jimexchange looks wondering where are wegoing to get parts I disappear into theport aft cabin and reappear moments laterwith a new filter and a new O ring fromthe spare parts kit I laid in before we leftFor a brief moment I am heralded as thebest provisioner of all time With all newparts installed Jim steps confidentially tothe helm and turns the key The Yanmarcranks hopefully but that is all and prettysoon the starter is starting to lag becausethe start battery is being depleted Aroundthis time our friend Dan from Seahawkstrolls down the dock and suggests we trypriming the new fuel filter The guys grinsheepishly Apparently this is a man thingthey are supposed to know The filter getsprimed and more cranking and now thestart battery is dangerously low We takea short break and Ray heads to the bath-room where a chance conversation giveshim the answer we need Soon he is backand tells Jim that the air needs to be bledout of the fuel line Before we can do thatthough Jim and I hoist one of the housebatteries out of its locker and move it tothe companionway where it is connectedto the start battery using the batterycables Dan loaned us The Yanmar serv-ice manual guides us through the process

and once the lines are bled I turn the keyand Yanmar busts into life and chugs hap-pily away A cheer goes up from the crewof Emmanuel which is echoed by a victo-ry blast from Seahawk By this time it isafter 12 noon and we are anxious to be onour way Soon we are slipping our linesand with a last wave to Seahawk andthank you call on the VHF we quicklyleave Rock Harbor behind As we exitMiddle Island passage we find the windsare about 15 knots ESE with seas of 1-2

feet We decide on a double reefed mainand we roll out a small amount of jibPretty soon we are flying along runningdown the shore of Isle Royale Our planas we pass Saginaw Point again is to sailfor as long as we can and keep an eye onthe weather We decide that if the windsdie off by the time we get to the southerntip of the island we will duck intoWashington Harbor for the night If thewind is forecast to stay up we will sail tothe islands tonight

Shortly after this we pass theentrance to Chippewa Harbor and aresurprised by a hail from ZaBreNa Theyare tucked into Chippewa and were hik-ing to the overlook when they spotted usflying past We urge them to join us butthey have decided to wait until eveningbefore making for the islands We plan arendezvous at Stockton and we continueon our way By 515 pm we are about10 miles from Grace Harbor Jim andRay have been listening to NOAA andthey are happy with the wind forecast sowe decide we will continue on

Seaworthy the newsletter fromBoatUS that helps boaters and

anglers prevent damage to their vesselslooked into some of the more commonreasons for on-the-water boat troublesthat occur mid-season

ldquoPreventive maintenance will helpyou avoid the headaches and keep yourcrew or fishing buddies comfortable andsaferdquo says Seaworthy Editor BobAdriance ldquoSo going over the boatrsquos sys-tems in the spring is very important Butnow after a couple months of use itrsquostime to look at things again A midsum-mer check-up will ensure you make itback to home port without a problemrdquo

Here are some midsummermaintenance tips for bothpower and sailboats

bull Through-hulls Make a thoroughcheck around any below-the-waterlinehole or opening Check all through-hullsfor leaks and cycle seacocks to ensurethey close properly If itrsquos hard to movethe handle make a note to service it nexttime the boat is out of the water Anyhose clamps should be tight and hoseends secure A bilge pump cycle counteris a simple upgrade and the best earlywarning system that unwanted water iscoming aboard

bull Engine belts For inboard engineslook in areas near the belts checking forevidence of black dust mdash a sure sign thatengine pulleys need to be realigned andthe belt replaced Push on the longest runof the belt mdash it should not deflect morethan one half inch

bull Engine hoses Squeeze coolant andfuel hoses with your hands looking forsoftness cracks or bulges Replace anythat are suspect Wiggle the ends toensure they are secure and inspect for anypossible chafing issues in the enginecompartment

bull Sterndrives Inspect the folds in thebellows and replace if they show signsof cracking

bull Sacrificial zincs and anodes Awasted zinc is a sure sign of trouble pos-sibly stray current at the dock Ensure allzincs are no less than half gone mdash andreplace them now if they are

bull Control cables Look for chafe splitsor swelling of the plastic jacket mdash a suresign the cable needs replacement

bull Outboard engine mounts Smallerengines can sometimes vibrate loose sore-tighten clamps and ensure the cut-offswitch is operable

bull Hydraulic steering system and trimtabs Ensure reservoirs are full If youhave to add fluid there is leak that mustbe fixed immediately

bull Batteries and electrical systemDead batteries are often nothing morethan corroded connections mdash sandpapercan easily clean them up With conven-tional batteries check water levels andadd if necessary Inspect cables andwiring for chafe especially whereverthey may pass through a bulkhead

bull Shorepower cable Look for burnmarks on the plug ends and the connec-tion to the boat Replace both the plugand receptacle immediately if you find any

bull Head If your boat has a flushing toi-let and its handle is getting hard to oper-ate yoursquove likely got calcium buildupPour a cup of vinegar into bowl pumpingonly once or twice Let it sit for one nightbefore flushing with one-fourth cup ofmineral oil

bull On deck Old stiff or chafed docklines should be replaced Also checkanchor line and chain shackles and any splices

bull Sailboats only Look for any brokenstrands on standing rigging You can findthem by running a loose rag up the rig-ging which will snag on any brokenends Cracked swages are an indicator forimmediate replacement Contact a riggerif you suspect a problem Running rig-ging also needs to be looked at mdash espe-cially the roller furling line

bull Trailers Inspect bearings and ensurethey are well packed with greaseHydraulic brake reservoirs should be fullLastly check the tires for wear and ensurelugs are tight

My favorite rule of thumb and onethat I have used with great success

many times is to sail the longer tackfirst This is a simple nearly foolproofguideline that is easy to use and oftencomes with great results

When youre racing upwind thelonger tack is the one on which you mustspend more time to get from where youare to the windward mark There aremany reasons why one tack may belonger than the other Most often thishappens because you have sailed awayfrom the middle of the course

For example if you sail toward theleft side of the beat you might have 4minutes left on starboard tack and 8 min-utes left on port tack before reaching thewindward mark In that case port is obvi-ously the longer tack Other reasons forunequal tacks include windshifts a cross-current and a windward mark that wasnot set to windward


Rule of Thumb Sail the longer tack firstby David Dellenbaugh

The longer tack is the one on whichyour bow is pointing closer to the wind-ward mark Sometimes it is easy to judgethis by looking at where other boats arepointing on each tack If you have instru-ments or even a compass you can calcu-late the longer tack mathematically

Besides figuring out which tack islonger its important to know roughlyhow much longer it is than the other tackFor example will you have to spend 10minutes on one tack and 2 minutes on theother Or just 7 minutes on one tack and6 on the other

The more skewed the tacks the morecritical it becomes to sail on the tack thatis longer If one tack is much longer thereis a high probability that it will be betterto get on that tack right away But if thetacks are very close in length (which isprobably the case if you have a hard timefiguring out which tack is longer) theremay be no advantage in sailing one tackjust because its a little longer

Playing the odds

Sailing the longer tack first is agood rule of thumb when you arenot sure which way the wind willshift next The longer tack takesyou away from the layline andgives you a better chance of gain-ing if you get a windshift beforeyou reach the windward mark

The benefits of this strategy are greatest when the following condi-tions exist

1) The distance you must sail on one tack is substantially longerthan the distance remaining on the other tack For example if you have7 minutes to sail on starboard tack and only 2 on port (A) its very like-ly that sailing the longer tack first will be better But if you are closer tothe middle of the course with 4 minutes to sail on one tack and 3 min-utes on the other (B) there may not be much advantage in sailing thelonger tack first

2) You are fairly far from the mark The closer you are to the mark(C) the less of an advantage youll get from sailing the longer tack firstThats because the wind is less likely to shift during the short time beforeyou round the mark In this case its often best to minimize the numberof tacks you make and to position yourself ideally relative to the boatsaround you

When and why this worksSailing the longer tack first is a rule ofthumb that works most of the timeHowever like all such guidelines it is notmeant to be a replacement for figuringout what the wind is doing and makingyour own strategic plan to handle the par-ticular wind conditions you are facingFor example if its light air and you seemore pressure to the left you shouldprobably sail that direction on starboardtack even if port tack is a lot longer

However when you are not so sureabout what the wind will do next (and thisis the case even for top sailors much ofthe time) then you can rely on rules ofthumb like sail the longer tack first Thisprinciple works because when the windmight shift in either direction its better tostay away from the layline By sailing thelonger tack first you head toward themiddle of the beat rather than the closerlayline

Over the course of many races in thepast this strategy has proven to workmore often than not In other words itgives you a higher probability of successwhich is very important when you are try-ing to minimize your exposure to risk

The probability that this rule ofthumb will work goes up as a) the tacksbecome more uneven and b) you are far-ther from the mark (see ldquoPlaying theoddsrdquo) If you are quite far from the wind-ward mark and the tacks are quiteskewed it is very urgent to sail on thelonger tack

Note that if you have a cross-current(a current the runs perpendicular to thewind) this will often make one tacklonger than the other sometimes by quitea bit In that case it may be better to sailthe up-current tack first This is notbecause there is any inherent advantageto being up-current - it just keeps youcloser to the middle of the course whichis better when youre not sure what willhappen next with the wind

Corollary Sail the longer jibe firstFor the same reasons that you should normally sail the longer tack first on a beat youshould also sail the longer jibe first on a run Getting to the downwind layline too earlyhas all the same problems - the risk of sailing extra distance possible bad air and theinability to play future windshifts (when youre not sure what the wind will do)

In fact this rule of thumb may be even more important on runs than beats becauseits easier to overstand downwind Most boats have narrower jibing angles than tackingangles (right) so when you round the windward mark you are already closer to a lay-line All you need is a slight skew in the course a windshift pressure increase or a cross-current and youll be at layline before you know it


LEFT Even a small increase in wind velocity can have a largeimpact on your downwind angles Therefore you have toallow for this when positioning yourself on the run If youget too close to a layline and get a puff you will be over-standing the leeward mark

RIGHT Boats with symmetrical spinnakerstypically have narrower jibing angles than

tacking angles in almost every windvelocity So its easier to get to a

downwind layline especially inbreeze when the jibing angle

is very small

We alter course to a heading of 171degrees which gives us an ETA at OuterIsland at 0400 We discuss watches andRay and I volunteer to take the 1600-2000 and the 1200 to 0400 watch Sincewe are about an hour into Jim andJolenes break I head below and heat upsome leftover stew for them before theyhead off watch Pretty soon it is just Rayand I in the cockpit Emmanuel is on Ottoand the conversation ranges far and wideThe day is moving slowly towardsevening and the sky is now streaked withthe pink and lavender shades of a summersunset The wind has leveled off and ourcourse has it placed solidly on our hip sowe shake the reef out of the main andunroll the rest of the jib The extra poweris helpful because the quartering seashave increased steadily and are now over4 feet I find that watching the steady andpowerful rhythm of the waves is deeplyhypnotic They are large impatient beastsand when they meet Emmanuels sleekhull they surge and seem to seek a way toclaim her when they cannot they rollunder her stern and rush around her bowand like grumpy old men who are inter-fered with mumble bitterly to themselvesas they continue on their way

When Ray comes back on deck herigs the radar deflector and I help himhoist it high in the rigging After that I gobelow and make some hot cocoa whichRay and I share along with our dwindlingsupply of seasick cookies Their abun-dance of ginger helps with queasinesswhen the seas are this rolly Emmanuel isstill sailing well and is maintainingspeeds of 7-8 knots For the next hour or

so we talk in a desultory fashion and Iwatch as dusk approaches slowly Atabout 750 I head below and shake Joleneand Jim out of their bunks By the timethey stumble up on deck they are happyto see the pot of fresh coffee ready forthem After shift turn over Ray and I headbelow and Ray disappears into his cabinI decide a thermos of hot soup would begood for the crew on watch so I get a potof tomato soup heating on the stoveBecause of the quartering seas it is stillrolly so I need the pot holders to hold thepan on the gimbaled stove Once the soupis hot I pick it up in both hands I have thethermos standing in the sink but now Irealize I have a problem with the transferThe soup does not pour well from the panespecially when I am aiming for an open-ing jus t a little larger than an inch I knowI have a funnel somewhere but I cannotset the pan down for fear of it spilling(fiddles not withstanding) while I searchfor it I finally resign myself to the factthat I am going to lose some and take mybest shot After cleaning all the soup outof the sink I head to my bunk

Its a little strange being in the V-berth while we are underway I havenever slept on Emmanuel except whenwe are at anchor or docked While there isa certain amount of noise from the water

Isle Royale - Continued from page 13

Lighthouse at Rock Harbor Photo by Jolene Boyd

Jim gets ready to stand his watch on our way back to Pikes Bay


rushing past the hull it is actually a sooth-ing sound I wedge myself crossways intothe V-berth but since we are not heelingand the rolling motion is more pro-nounced in the stern I am very comfort-able I read for a while and then I dozeoff All too soon Jolene is waking me upfor my next shift I put all my layers ofclothes back on including my harness andtether and head for the cockpit It is abeautiful night but the wind has easedsome so Jim has started the diesel tomaintain our speed but the sails are stillup Jim and Jolenes watch was unevent-ful except for a couple of freighters thathave just shown up on the screen Againit is Ray and I and the moonlit night Wecan see lights on the far north shore andwe are pretty sure we are seeing the lightsof Grand Marais I keep an eye on thefreighters on our screen and it soonbecomes obvious they will pass wellastern of us so I relax just a bit

I have the helm by myself for a bitwhile Ray is below and it is a huge feel-ing It is a magnificent feeling-being atthe helm of a boat like Emmanuel andsailing across this lake The full moon isstill with us and lights our way The onlysounds are those of wind water and boatEmmanuel sails along at home in thewater and happy to be underway Iremember well all my feelings of trepi-dation at the start of this journey and amamazed at how different I feel now Injust 5 days we have sailed more than 300miles put our anchor down in newanchorages and crossed this lake twiceat night In some ways it seems a shamethat I have waited until now my 48thsummer before finding out I can do thisbut at least now I know My feeling ofsatisfaction is immense

By about 2 am Ray and I have spot-ted the light from Outer Island and westart to discuss what our plan will beWere not sure if we want to stop in theislands and get some sleep or continue onto Pikes Bay Our ETA for arriving atStockton is around 5 am and gettingback to Pikes Bay would take another 2hours Since we are already a day aheadof schedule we decide to stop in theislands and see if we get a chance to sail

that day We discuss various anchoragesand Ray advocates for some locationsthat are closer to where we enter theislands but I lobby vigorously for puttingthe hook down in Presque Bay onStockton I know the bay so making ourentrance in low light doesnt bother meWe postpone a decision until Jim andJolene are back on watch At 400 amRay wakes the next shift and when Jimand Jolene are on deck we discuss ouroptions Jim decides on Presque Isle Bayand we adjust our waypoint I head belowand curl up on the settee in the main salonsince I know we are due to arrive atStockton in about an hour I doze for a bitand then Jim is waking me to help withthe anchor Once on deck I can see thatthe skies have lightened considerably andfinding a place to put the hook down iseasy Once the anchor is set I head belowfor my bunk and am sound asleep by 520am We all sleep pretty sound until about9 am and then its time for coffee

It is a warm sunny day with clearskies and is a perfect day for just hangingout and taking it easy Breakfast is throwntogether from leftovers and Jolene doesdishwashing duty afterwards There is ageneral air of somnolence on board andthe slightly humid day does nothingmuch to shake us out of our torpor By

late afternoon a craving for pasta over-takes everyone on board so I whip up abatch of Pasta Puttanesca and we all eatbig platefuls of the stuff Of course thisfeast promotes more lying about in thewarm drowsy afternoon A few hourslater ZaBreNa hails us on channel 16 andwe find out she has just reached OuterIsland We invite her to stop by for snacksand the invitation is accepted quickly Iget busy in the galley again and pull outall the leftovers and throw them on platesand bowls By the time I am doneZaBreNa is in sight and Jolene and I tieon fenders and ready lines ZaBreNacomes alongside and we raft up withouttoo much fuss Our guests come aboardEmmanuel and we all have a chance totalk over the adventure we just had andshare stories about our crossing By earlyevening we know it is time to return toPikes Bay so we haul anchor reluctantlyand motor home in the fading light of alate summer day All of us changed for-ever by this experience

ZaBreeNas Crew joins us for post cruise raft up at Presque Isle Bay

After dominating the standings onday one of racing for the 2010
