On Saturday, the 29th April, started with the launch "Florence" for Musquash. 

 Got two trap nets there all ready to be set, and about 400 feet of line — some of it 

 new, also a boat anchor. The owners had skipped, so we destroyed the nets on the 

 spot. Travelled 350 miles in April before getting Log Book. 



Weather too rough and stormy the following week to go out until Friday, 

 when we went as far as Pinery Point, but had to return as wind too strong. 

 Went to Sturgeon Bay, and the next day to Port Severn, Potato Island, Sturgeon

 heavy sea. Iveft again on Wednesday for Moon River, calling at Honey Harbor,
