The Late Start

With pretty new engines





And shiny new props


We finally left Port Townsend.  Initially, it was our intention to spend the 4th of July in Canada.  Now we are hoping to spend the 4th of October in Desolation Sound.  The fish will be waning and the bears will be sleepy but we have a weather window and we are heading for Desolation Sound..





Port Townsend gave us a beautiful send-off complete with a rainbow over the Jefferson County Court House



And another that followed the Port Townsend Ferry



After 45 knot winds that pinned us in port for three extra days we woke to a glorious morning and headed north

Hoping for a glorious weather break to compliment our short season.
