Our beloved sailboat that we've had since 2004 is now sold.. We've shared many evenings at the card table over euchre tournaments and jiffy pop shaken on the stove. Many nights rocked to sleep by the waves. Days spent cranking jib sheets and tacking - working as a 4-person team.

But the kids have summer jobs now. And our new kayaks seem to demand lots of attention. So, time for another family to discover the joys of touring and spending time with your loved ones without distractions.

Logs and Frogs memories:
- raising the jib upside down on first sail
- epic sail across Lake Huron
- 100 km/hr. winds and dragging at anchor
- sailing by compass bearing through thick fog and emerging right on course
- Tarzan rope swing off the mast
- falling off the boat fully clothed in November with my wallet
- our friends volunteering as deck hands in a race with big seas and the return of the hummus down both sides of the hull. First and last sail for said friends.
So long, Logs and Frogs. Happy voyages. Thanks for keeping us safe.
Anyone else out there sail?
