The weather front has arrived as predicted, with SE winds of 20 to 30 knots. Usually, since we normally do not have an agenda, we would just stay, read books, watch movies and relax. However, we need to be in Victoria to meet Anne-Marie Castleberg the day after Labor Day, and there are other places we want to visit on the way south.
With Eos equipped as she is, we felt perfectly comfortable crossing the upper Straits of Georgia to Comox. The short steep waves on the beam put a lot of spray on deck, but the stabilizers did just fine and the navigation systems guided us over the Comax bar with no problems.
The harbormaster assigned us BW-1 on the breakwater, which was a little bouncy but the rain washed all of the salt water off.
