Hello!

Please add Mirror 20763 to the Roll Call

Skipper: Darren Clark
Home Port: Napanee, Ontario Canada

Purchased as refinish project from local Canadian author Helen Humphreys (circumnavigator and wonderful seagoing storyteller).

Built 1969. Same age as the Moon Landing and her Skipper.

Currently an unnamed racer, she is being refit into Victorinox - a purpose built cruising dinghy (for 2!) For Camp cruising and fishing the back lakes of the Canadian Shield and Coastal adventures along the shores of Lake Ontario and the Thousand Islands.

For a couple of old Canoe campers, we are overwhelmed with the volume and luxury of what may be the perfect small boat hull. Can't wait!

I am grateful for all new information and members who don't just rely on Facebook.
My wife and were in Canada in 2019 and spent two nights near Nananoque. We took an excursion trip to the Thousand Islands and were amazed by the scenery. I loved being able to jump off the rocks in front of our cabin and swim in the clear water.
We were also fortunate to enjoy the hospitality of Peter Kaiser of the Ontario Mirror Dinghy Association who "invented" this forum many years ago. Perhaps it was karma that Pete was born in Berlin, where I have been living for more than 50 years now.
I hope and assume that we shall be receiving some cruising adventure reports and/or pictures in future!
Cheers,
Gernot H.
