Since our little snow-filled adventure on Blake Island a week ago, we’ve been busy! We cruised back over to Seattle on Tuesday (with Sam on Safe Harbour) and stayed at Elliott Bay for a few nights. During that time we did some fun city stuff (mainly involving food)…we had dinner…

After a delicious breakfast at Etta’s in Seattle yesterday morning, we headed across Elliott Bay to Blake Island State Marine Park. Sam and Kevin and I met up with several other brave winter boaters, and after a super fun potluck dinner last night, we woke up to a gorgeous snowy…
14 CommentsWe had a nice afternoon around Bell Harbor yesterday. We grabbed some fish & chips and a beer up at Anthony’s for a late lunch and then did a bunch of work from Airship the rest of the day. The sun popped out beneath the clouds and made for some…
2 CommentsIt’s always fun arriving in Seattle by boat. We left Eagle Harbor on Bainbridge Island around 11am this morning and headed across Elliott Bay to Seattle. Elliott Bay was a bit choppy: wind 15-25kts and wind waves maybe 3ft. No big deal, just a little wet. Mt. Rainier with some…
1 CommentOn Thursday we drove from Portland to Anacortes, and then on Friday morning we cruised from Anacortes to Port Townsend. It was nice chill cruise down Rosario Strait and across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Port Townsend. So calm and boring that I didn’t take one single photo.…
3 CommentsI know, we’ve been quiet. We’ve been home in Portland working ourselves silly! (This is the view this morning from my home office.) First we were snowed in for a solid week (!!) and then during that week we’d started some new projects that we didn’t want to lose momentum…
6 CommentsWe left Jones Island early on Saturday morning so we could pick up Anna (Sam’s girlfriend) in Friday Harbor. She was flying in from Seattle by float plane, but her flight left an hour late from Seattle so we went out to breakfast and shopped for some more groceries to…
3 CommentsYesterday morning at Smuggler Cove looked just as pretty as sunset did the night before! We cruised easily across the Strait of Georgia and arrived in Ganges Harbor on Salt Spring Island right around sunset (~4:30pm). We met up with our friends Michael and Nancy at the marina, and they…
4 CommentsWe woke up to 32 degrees and sun. Princess Louisa Inlet is a deep fjord surrounded by very tall snow-covered mountains, so it’s tough to get good photos on sunny days due to the extreme contrast of shade and sun. Chatterbox Falls: We got some work done after breakfast on Sam’s boat,…
11 CommentsWe left Wallace Island by 8am on Saturday (New Year’s Eve) and headed north. We arrived at Dodd Narrows and had just over 4kts of current against us, which was no big deal. The Strait of Georgia was 15-20kts and mostly a nice ride until the last third or so…
