The Blog is changing and will be unavailable for a bit. Actually it may be out of action for a few weeks. We are concentrating on our daughter's wedding in London, Ontario and some other great family events.
We intend, Insha'Allah, to sail a chunk of Newfoundland in the summer of 2015, and the blog will be up and running long before this. If you are interested please contact us and we can do a flotilla. Believe us when we tell you the St. Lawrence River is unparalled sailing. The Gaspesie is home to fantastic sailing.
Connie spends her time wrestling some first rate recipes into "doable on a boat" form. Here's hoping her efforts pay out. So far even the failures have been spectacular in a good way.
Bob has discovered the Arduino and the Raspberry PI and has disappeared into his "Library" where he is prototyping a host of new devices to aid in running or monitoring the boat. At least that is how he explains the cloud of burning phenol board hovering around the door.
Like the explosion of new life that presaged the human race Bob expects most of his creations to fall afoul of some subsection or other of Darwin's immutable law but if even one survives ... (not coming from Texas we accept evolution as a valid theory of how some things are explained. We figure that God might well have chosen the evolution system to achieve his goals. Assuming God exists of course. Which he doesn't. But let's not confuse the fundamentalists. They carry guns.)
If anyone has questions on the old blog or wants information on any topic previously published please contact us, Bob and Connie at bennersadrift.runbox.com. We love to chat.

Bob - Have you disappeared down a black hole? I've been watching this space for months and you've got nothing to report? Did you go to NFLD or not? Diane and I are in Papeete Tahiti, bound for NZ by November 2015. Yes, we are in the South Pacific and the green slime is growing on the North side of the boat at the waterline. Can you imagine that? I'm concerned Bob, is everything OK? www.joana.ca
