A dozen sailboats took to the water on Saturday August 20 for the 8th annual Sail Mazinaw.  The boats sailed against a horizon of broken and upended trees just 3 months after the derecho swept through Addington Highlands.  A powerboat loaded with disappointed sailors was flying the yellow quarantine flag after a family member tested positive for COVID.  The wind was light and variable in the morning, but a southerly filled in and skippers reported that their keels were humming in the afternoon.  The day had started with a crew breakfast at Mazinaw Lakeside Resort and ended with a potluck dinner in the evening.  Fun times!  Check the Sail Mazinaw Facebook page for photos.
