The Club met at the marina at 6:00 pm and piled into our boats.  Wind was out of the NE at 5 - 7 knots and we covered about 20 km before the first part of the evening was over.  Between Nibissing High School and Sunset Point we were able to cover all points of sail and played a little Cat & Mouse chase between the boats.  A golden red to purple sunset saluted us as we headed back in to the marina.  The temperature was perfect.   We had a short break at the marina dropping off crew and picking up new crew and back out we went at about 9:30 pm.  There was a light breeze so we set the genoa and sailed to the south towards Deep Water Point.  Our goal was to see the last of the Perseid Meteor Shower and we weren't disappointed.  They were so fast that there was a lot of "Did you see that" on the boat.  The shower was passed its peak but we weren't disappointed.  We saw a few satellites of which one was large enough to just to make out its panel wings (four tight points of light).  The stars grew brighter and more numerous as the dusk slowly faded.  It was interesting to reflect that these were the same stars we were looking at that the Norse Explorers used to find North America (Canada's first non-aboriginals on the east coast).  At just past 10:30 pm, out of WSW, a very bright point of light quickly rose and traveled almost directly overhead us (60 degrees) and headed to the NE.  It was the International Space Station (verified on the puter back home).
