We left Wallace Island by 8am on Saturday (New Year’s Eve) and headed north. We arrived at Dodd Narrows and had just over 4kts of current against us, which was no big deal. The Strait of Georgia was 15-20kts and mostly a nice ride until the last third or so…

We’re back at Jones Island tonight (three Nordic Tugs!): Dan & Eileen on Fortunate (a 32′), and Sam, Anna, David, and Mark on Safe Harbour (Sam’s 37′). Airship, with rainbow: We are moored on the north side of Jones, since the wind today and tonight will be SE. This afternoon we…

Yesterday Kevin and Sam and I had breakfast on Sam’s boat and then hiked out to Ewing Cove to check out the sea conditions. Snowy mountains in the distance,…

We headed up to the Willows Inn on Lummi Island again this year for Kevin’s birthday. We mostly do experiences rather than gifts for birthdays these days and it’s quite nice because we both get to experience what we plan. Luckily, our tastes are very similar. The ferry ride over to…

After dinner we had them over for some brownies and wine (and stories, and laughing, and planning the next anchorages….) This morning after breakfast, Kevin took the…

We left Ford’s Terror this morning (exiting just before high slack against about 2 knots of current…no big deal) and decided to fish a bit in Holkham Bay before meeting up with Sam and his family in Taku Harbor tonight. We didn’t catch anything, but we did see puffins! They weren’t…

High slack on Sunday evening brought in our friend Sam (and some visiting family) on Safe Harbour, his Nordic Tug 37. We were the only two boats in Ford’s Terror for the next two nights and it was fantastic. In the morning Sam took his family out for a Terror Tour…

It’s about 20 miles or so (each way) to cruise to Le Conte Glacier from Petersburg (depending on how far you go into Le Conte Bay…we went pretty far in!) We left Petersburg around 7am this morning on what turned out to be another beautiful day. Approaching Le Conte Bay:…
