The sun is breaking through and it just magical here. We are alone and the water is like glass. We have a 10 km trip back out to Mathieson Channel. We entered Heikish Narrows 30 minutes before slack and had a 3 kt push without any turbulence. We kept Princess Royal Island to port and kept a lookout for bears. This island is a good place to see white colored black bears. They are also called spirit bears. No such luck. Haven't even seen a black bear.

We finally reached our favorite anchorage in BC, Khutze Inlet. This is another wonderful fiord with high granite cliffs and wonderful waterfalls. We were a little disappointed to see two other boats there but we did get our favorite spot in front of the tallest waterfall. We did have to re-set our anchor but we are now snug.
After Fred went out to drop our crab pots, we had a visitor. It was Greg off of
Allure and he says he has trouble. Apparently both of his GPS and chart plotters are off the air. He wanted to know if we could buddy boat up to Prince Rupert. We had a better solution. We have a back up Garmin GPS we were able to lend him. He is very grateful and we are happy to do it. He says his electronics will be repaired in Prince Rupert.
