Played at Stephan's place. MASKIP. We're back to a full crew, as Pascal just flew in this morning from his vacation in Austria and other European countries. Absent for many weeks now, he quickly makes up for lost time by winning the first two games and almost winning the third one.

Voyages Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs It's a tie between Stephan and Pascal at 33 points, with Alain just behind at 32.
Voyages Pascal Werlberger Pascal's talent at this game is confirmed (this time with the marauder version, which he wins with 71 points), and we learn a valuable life lesson: "oars" save sailors.
Category 5 Kevin Caron Pretty much everybody was in the running for this one, though Pascal led most of the way. But he falters on the fifth and last round, allowing Kevin to triumph with 55 points.

KIMS. Kevin brings a new game and introduces it to us. It is a roll-and-write game with sea voyages as the theme. It plays fairly quickly and we like it enough so that after the first game we start another one ... at which point the power goes out all over Moncton! But we soldier on (sail on?) by candlelight. Romantic cruises, anyone?

Voyages Kevin Caron We all do better in our second game, which is the marauder variant, but that includes Kevin who once again dominates. 81 points.

Notes
Fearsome floors Kevin Caron Mike and Kevin's collaborative defense is very successful, as Stephan's, then Alain's, then Ian's near wins are successively thwarted. But there can be only one winner and in the end it is Kevin.
