The Artful Dodger II

Sunday, July 15, 2007







First Puffin, I've seen, weather great, winds light, there were lots of whales about but timing off to take pictures. was able to get 5.3 knots only with forward gibe, the shack down found some areas needing attention, one for sure secure the main roller for anchor, its loose, must have been all the wild seas I've been up against, not to mention the wild winter we road out.


First anchorage of the season, calm seas but in order to return to port have to wait on tides something. else I'm becoming very knowledge about.
Here is a picture of the coast and how rugged it is, might say here that I'm toying with thoughts of looking at the North West Passage to go to Vancouver, there are some who are heading there this year will see how they fare before I make my final decision

New Head


well it has taken almost two years but finally have been able to finish up the head, as you can see there is a before and after. I'm finishing up a lot of the needed changes before the major trip starts. Just a note although its July here it is still very cold yet, they say the weather here has two seasons, winter and August, and I'm thinking that its true.
