Quirpon is a shallow Chanel of water that cuts the tip of Newfoundland off and makes it an island. Bit of a wriggle to get in on the east side but it is protected by a low hanging electrical cable about 20 metres from the water. And our mast is about 19.5 plus an aerial.

He looks a lot less confident as we get close, and I start to worry we might get an entry in the Darwin awards.
