I cannot give you many details as I am not in touch with my nephew but I thought some might enjoy following the remainder of his trip in the Canadian Arctic.
Churchill, Arviat, Rankin Inlet,Coral Harbor, Cape Dorset,Now at Kimmirut,and then to his final destination at Iqaluit.
Teddy was raised in the north between Rankin and Iqaluit. Just bringing the boat home.
The boat is a 22' Zag Fab made in Manitoba. I put a couple of pictures in my album since I don't know how to put them on the post.
He picked up the Spot in Rankin so the tracking begins there.
Lets see if this works.

The SPOT works fine -- what a great trip. We have spent some time in Churchill in the fall with a fine boat trip by a local chap, and then back by train in the winter to spend a few weeks watching the northern lights.
We sure have enjoyed the north country and will be watching his trip -- trust all goes well. _________________ El and Bill (former live-aboards)

Well, my nephew can sleep in his bed in Iqaluit tonight.
I wish I had a few details but I just followed on the Spot.
They were worried about rounding the point near Resolution Island but it turned out OK. "The dragon was sleeping" To quote Penny & George on Wanderer on their trip to Alaska.
My sister will sleep better tonight.
I hope to get some picture latter to put in my album.
Thank you El & Bill for wishes
