Mobile Update

For days there has been a strong wind warning for the Juan de Fuca Strait. Today the wind has died. That means a repeat of last time - a long day of motoring. Equally disappointing, the sun has disappeared even though there are no clouds in the forecast. As an added insult, we're struggling against an all-day flood tide that has kep our speed to 3 - 4 knots. At this rate we won't be at Port Renfrew until 10pm. 

With that said, 25kt winds on the nose are expected tomorrow so I shouldn't complain. Just coming up to Sheringham Point with its lovely lighthouse.
