Sail Mazinaw

Aug 21, 2019

The 5th annual Sail Mazinaw was held Saturday August 10.  This year's event included the Sandpiper 565 Rendezvous and drew 18 boats.  One came from Michigan, and another from Sault Ste. Marie.  Saturday was gusty with intermittent sprinkles of rain:  perfect sailing conditions.  Crews dressed as pirates for breakfast at Mazinaw Lakeside Resort, and again for a potluck dinner.  This year's Mazinaw Cup was presented to the Sandpiper fleet for their enthusiasm and for fending off an attack by a ghost pirate ship.  Sunday, the RCAF flew a C-130 Hercules over the fleet while they were cruising The Lower Mazinaw.  Nobody has more fun than sailors.
