Cruising aboard the Nauti-Dog

After 33 years on sailboats it is time to stop tending sails. We now have a brand new Ranger Tugs R31CB-LE. This boat is trailerable, although we will need wide load permits. It will now be a one day trip to DeTour, Michigan rather than 6+ days.

After leaving Poulsbo we headed south back toward Des Moines. This is Mt. Rainier to the southeast. Although it hasn't erupted in recent years, it is still considered to be an active volcano.
