The Voyage of Irish Ayes

Mike and Pat began their "Great Loop" trip aboard their boat, Irish Ayes, on 6 October 2006. Irish Ayes is a 1986 Gulfstar, Wide Body Motor Yacht. Our voyage will take us from Knoxville, Tennessee, to Florida and the Bahamas in November, returning to Florida in December. In April 2007, we will aim the pointy end of the boat north up the east coast of the USA, stopping wherever looks interesting. We hope you enjoy our trip with us by way of this link. Mike and Pat

Baie Fine

XPLORER and IRISH AYES spent the next few days in beautiful anchorages with breathtaking scenery. Our first stop after leaving Little Current on 6 August was Baie Fine (pronounced Bay Fin). Mike and Pat on LIBATIONS were at anchor there, so we anchored with them for the night. We met Mike and Pat at the Penetang Rendezvous.

Once settled, all of us got in our dinghies and took about a 10 mile dinghy ride to the “Pool” in Baie Fine. From here, we took about a 30 minute hike up a small mountain to Topaz Lake. The trek was somewhat difficult, but it was well worth the trip. The lake water here is a gorgeous topaz blue.

We stayed in Baie Fine for two nights and moved on to Covered Portage Cove.
