We had wind up to 25
kts and 1’chop on Johnstone Strait today. We had the current with us though we actually
achieved 15 kts over the ground (9 kts through the water) through Race
Passage.

As we neared Havannah Channel
we had to pass through an enormous field of logs. We definitely had to be on our toes here. Port
Harvey is a long bay with the marina at the head. There are logging operations along the shore
which are very unsightly. If we didn’t
like George and Gail who run the marina we might not stop here. http://portharvey.blogspot.ca/ Of course when I passed the line through the
bull rail to tie up when we landed I managed to put it through a rotten piece
of wood that pulled up and caught our line in the screws under it. George
came down to help release the line. We
are the only ones on the dock but George & Gail came to say hello. The Red
Shoe Restaurant isn’t open yet but we had a nice visit.
The Port Harvey Yacht Club is now open for
membership and we are charter members at #20 & #21. We purchased the burgee and may display it at
some point.
George is a great baker and
we ordered six cinnamon rolls for morning to take with us when we leave
