Day 112; Aug 19: Today was smoother than yesterday and not to long of a day. We got into Owen Bay and checked out the entire area before deciding where to anchor. There were many crab pots throughout the bay so that helped to make the anchor decision more difficult. I was surprised that by morning each one of the pots had been checked. The bay had homes all around the shore like lakes do.
Day 113; Aug 20: Today we needed to hit slack tide 2.5 miles
away at 8:30. Our anchorage is only 0.5 miles past. The entry is a narrow one
boat passage, we waited for 7-8 boats exiting, before we could enter. The place
is Waiatt Bay and the Octopus Islands, it is a great place with many anchoring
opportunities. You can stern tie in small coves or anchor in the big bay. There
were 20+ boats in there and no one was close unless it was buddy boats anchored
together.
Day 114; Aug 21: We left Waiatt Bay headed for Comox, we
would have stayed longed but the forecast for the Strait of Georgia had Strong
Wind Warning and we wanted to beat some of the wind. The wind didn’t happen and
the water was calm all the way to Comox. We did have a rapid to go through which
gave us a later start than normal.
Day 115; Aug 22: Today was a boring travel day. We started
at 7 AM and we got anchored in Telegraph Harbour. We waited for 2 hours to get through
Dodd Narrows so we anchored next to the narrows to eat lunch. The weather has
gotten better this was our 3rd day of summer.
Day 116; Aug 23: We made the push to get to Friday Harbor
today. Once over the boarder we used the ROAM app to clear customs. After a few
questions we were good to go. After getting to Friday Harbor we got our slip
assigned, tied up and went to lunch. This was our first 80-degree day of our summer.
Day 117; Aug 24: We did some chores looked around a bit and
went for drinks and dinner at a sports pub.
Day 118; Aug 25: We went to the grocery store, washed the
boat a little and tried unsuccessfully to get a prescription filled.
