Nanaimo-Friday Harbor

A foggy morning leaving Nanaimo this morning. There was about a mile of visibility as I left  which was enough to give me a point to point navigation aid. The Gabriola ferry in the back ground.










Dodd Narrows, my destination in the foreground. It's the low spot below the halyard attached to the bow rail. The water can run through here pretty fast so I'll arrive there about the same time the current is slack, hopefully.










Just as planned,slack water at the entrance with the fog lifting as the day wore on.

Headed south on Trincomali inlet. It was a long day today as I decided to motor all the way to Friday harbor bypassing the Gulf Islands. I had come down with the flu plus the rain and decided home was looking pretty good.  Friday Harbor, a good place to hold out till I was feeling better and Iwill probably take off tomorrow for home.













Another exciting day of going out fishing with the ol'man.
