US Customs was accomplished through the phone app 'CBP ROAM'. The Roche Harbor Port of Entry asked questions about boat location, food on board, and if we had the latest Customs Decal#...which we did. We then headed to Reid Harbor on Stuart Island for the night. Rising early, we travelled at slack current the remaining two hours to Friday Harbor! It's sunny, a great summer day to arrive at our condo. We refueled, did laundry, disposed of garbage, and will get some rest. We plan to take Julia Max to Portland in the next 4-5 days, depending on the weather.
