After a quick trip to Toronto on Saturday to see Phillip and my mom I was looking forward to a nice Father’s Day in Key Harbour with Katie and Geoffrey.
Crepes for breakfast and then a boat ride out to the Bustards to look at a CL 14 sailboat that we are being given! We stopped on the way back and took a photo where I proposed to Jen and got the whole father thing got rolling. Then some steak for lunch.

| Father’s day lunch |
Did some work at the island and set up my new Duotone Ventis 8m wing. The wind was gusty from the north all day and I really wasn’t feeling like headin out for a session.
But then at 4pm the wind reversed to SW and suddenly it was 15 knots. I knew that wouldn’t last but hoped that I’d get a bit of a session in the beautiful sun.

 |
| Good foil track. I shouldn’t go between some of those islands |
 |
| Heart rate and getting on foil are related |
 |
| Had a decent amount of WSW wind - average over 10 knots |
I managed to be out for part of the 10-12 knot period and the Ventis and the 2140 pump foil under Jen’s 142 Duotone Sky board which worked well. Tacks were especially interesting as the big wing overhead makes the tacking (toeside to heelside) super easy.
Thanks Jen for the video!
A lovely day with 2/3 of my kids checking out the progress on the island build. Gonna be a busy week getting the roof on!
