We are beginners but it was a heck of a good time :)

Lots of learning during this 3 day and 2 night trip from Hamilton to Scarborough and back.

Wow! That's nearly 60 km per day! That makes for long days! Apparently you sailed when there was enough wind to maintain a decent speed and motored or motor-sailed when the wind went away. Nice job, and you obviously had fun.

Wow - that is a great video! I don't think I've watched anything I enjoyed more this summer. I especially like all the space dedicated to bottle storage down below.

May I suggest changing the name to "175km's With Displacement" since you have a displacement hull? Or does the title mean something else?

Your father sounds like a tough guy. Hope he one day sails again.
