Steve and I left Cobourg around noon and headed towards Presque Isle Bay and the entrance of the Murray Canal. This canal is for pleasure craft only and links the west end of the Bay of Quinte to Lake Ontario. Once again, there was no wind so we had to motor the entire distance. When we arrived in Presque Isle Bay we were too late to enter the canal because the two swing bridges in the canal stop for the day at 7:30pm, so we tied up on the wall at the canal entrance to spend the night. We were near a marsh area that was also a mosquito haven. As a result we got eaten alive that night. We shut the boat up before dark but the mosquitoes still managed to find a way in to the cabin. Steve and I spent the evening looking at photos on the laptop and swatting bugs. By bedtime Steve had a pretty big pile of mosquito carcasses. Hopefully the sight of all those dead bodies deterred their comrades from entering our sleeping quarters!
