From South Manito Island to North Port

Next stop was Northport. We had an exciting night - around mid-night a thunderstorm went around us but it brought considerable winds, only light rains, lots of noise and fire works in the sky. We did not sleep very much as the anchor was in sand. We drifted out away from shore but it made for an uneasy night. The next morning clear skies and NO WIND.
