Splendid Journey: Arrival in Prince Rupert
http://splendidjourney.blogspot.com/2014/06/arrival-in-prince-rupert.html
Ahh, the sea. once it casts it's spell, it holds one in it's net of wonder forever. Friday, June 13, 2014. Arrival in Prince Rupert. Friday June 13, 2014. We arrived in Prince Rupert harbour yesterday afternoon. We started off motoring into 15-20 knots of wind, but then with a bit of a change in wind direction and our heading we were able to put up the sails and had a exciting sail all the way into the harbour. Sailing across Queen Charlotte Strait, EXCELLENT! Sunset, always beautiful on the west coast.

Ahh, the sea. once it casts it's spell, it holds one in it's net of wonder forever. Tuesday, August 20, 2013. Leaving the Pacific behind. I am playing catch up on our few last days out on the water. We arrive home last Thursday afternoon. We left Port San Juan on Tuesday morning and motored about 30 miles to Becher Bay, catching another coho along the way. For the most part, the fog had left us alone, but we did not have enough wind to fill our sails. Oh well, Maggie and I enjoyed the day! We welcome abo...

http://splendidjourney.blogspot.com/2013/08/leaving-bamfield.html
Ahh, the sea. once it casts it's spell, it holds one in it's net of wonder forever. Monday, August 12, 2013. Well, today is Monday August 12th and we are just leaving Bamfield. Our original plan was to head out on Saturday but the wind decided to do an about turn. So we headed over to Bamfield and hooked up with Rick and Rosita. Yesterday Rick took us out fishing on his FAST boat and we hauled in 8 beautiful coho, 4 for each of Jerry and I! Your new crew member seems to get the idea! Follow us by email.
