Cordova Bay to home, Ladysmith


Walking the dogs on the beach in the fog.

Wednesday July 23, 2009
Leave: Cordova Bay 0830
An early start to try to catch the current going north through Sansum Narrows, we are not in a hurry to get home, but it is much more efficient if we can have the current helping through the passage, rather than try and fight it. We seem to be running ahead of the fog for the most part, heard several 'mayday's' from other sailboats (both had hit bottom on a falling tide!).
Arrive: Ladysmith Harbour 1800
Trip Log: 344.3 nm

Port San Juan to Cordova Bay


Low tide in the morning, we love exploring what is revealed when the tide goes out.

Tuesday July 22, 2009
Leave: Mill Bay, Port San Juan 0930
Arrive: Cordova Bay 2000
A long day, but we made good time through Juan de Fuca, hitting over 10 knots towards Victoria.
Our rudder seems to be working okay, but there it is still a major concern.
