After a few nights in Teakerne, we pulled anchor and headed south to pick up supplies and fuel in Refuge Cove. Although quieter this year than past ones, the place is still a going concern! I don't remember ever being able to pull right up to the fuel wharf without being 5th or 6th in line in a hovering pattern. We had burgers ashore for lunch and bought supplies for the next few days (read wine and rum). After dropping off the garbage we crossed over to Squirrel Cove, found a sheltered spot and anchored in time for happy hour. We had a very unusual weather pattern the entire trip, breezy during the day but dead calm through the night. What a treat!

Vessel Name: Bacchus V
Vessel Make/Model: 1986 C+C 35 mk III
Hailing Port: Sidney B.C. on the west coast of Canada
Crew: Glenn and Gaie Judson
About: We're now empty nesters. Where was the larger boat when we really needed the space?
Extra: Bacchus is named for the Roman God of wine and partying. It was a good fit, but it's sometimes interesting crossing the border! 'check that boat for wine!'
