We begin our month long cruise with a nice dinner and night out with our friends Russ and Terry in Nanaimo. Of course we had to sample some nice wine to cap off the evening.We left our slip at 8:00 AM. The morning started off with an overcast sky and light winds. The water was lumpy and remained so until we made it behind Texada Island. The rest of the day was great. The sun came out and the water was flat.
We wanted to start off our trip with a great anchorage in Desolation Sound. We ran past Powell River, Lund and turned the corner into Desolation Sound and made way to Grace Harbour. Its a beautiful bay, and well protected.
We set our anchor at 6:00 PM. A total of 10 hours from Nanaimo to Grace Harbour. We were tired and hungry.Go to google earth and you can find our location at 50. 03. 104 N
124.44.745 W
We jumped into our dinghy and did the "Deadliest Catch" routine. We took off outside the bay and launched our string of 1 crab pot. We will let it soak until after supper and pull the pot.
Sherry didn't like it when I referred to her as a deck hand.
