...at De Tour and then at Spanish. Right now we are leaning more towards Spanish.

For us with maybe at that time only 2-3 weeks experience before we get there would any of you have a recommendation as to what area we concentrate on? Both of those areas look to have some pretty protected water. I guess my biggest concern is a sudden big storm. If we don't feel comfortable by then we won't do this, but this is a good year schedule wise for us to do it and might be the last chance we get for a few years and at our age we had better do something we want to do when we have the opportunity, in fact that is a good plan for anyone to follow regardless of their age. I lost a wife to cancer when we were both in our 30's and that changed my outlook on life and doing what is important a long time ago.

We are about ready to order the following book to help us some:

PORTS Cruising Guide to Georgian Bay, the Northern Channel and Lake Huron

http://www.portsbooks.com/cruising-guides

Is that a good book for us to have?

Thanks,

Sum and Ruth
