Set out to round Cape Caution looking to catch the flood
tide down Queen Charlotte Strait.
Heading south out of Rivers Inlet into Queen Charlotte
Strait, through Gordon Channel, continuing south through Christie Passage past
God’s Pocket, down Broughton Strait (at the south end of Malcolm Island) and
into Port McNeill.
Flat calm waters, good speed, all combined saved 1 hour off
the 67 mile run. So leaving in the dark
worked – but we both agree that we are not comfortable traveling in the dark
and probably would not do it again if we have a choice.
Tucked in safely at the Port McNeill Fuel Dock & Marina
where Steve met us at the dock. We will
do the usual chores and work stuff while we’re here.
Plans now are to leave on Wednesday for The Broughtons!
Once we get into The Broughtons, I anticipate that we will
not have access to free internet so our blog will probably go dark for about a
week while we are there.
See you all
soon!
