Day 125 - Montague Harbour

Traveled down Trincomal Channel by the one-boat-nook along Secretary Islands but it was occupied. Made our way towards Montague and tried out a bay on Parker Island. Decided to move as winds were forecasted to come into the bay in the morning, so moved over to Montague. Busy area with lots of boats - interesting to watch all the activity.

Day 124 - Silva Bay

Crossed the Strait of Georgia with following winds, going with the tide. Passed through Welcome Passage at Thormanby Island and headed to Silva Bay with the plan to go through Gabriola Passage versus Nanamio and Dodd Narrows.

Day 120 - Discovery Passage Marina - Campbell River

Easy transit down Johnstone to Discovery Passage and through Seymour Narrows with 4 knots of current along with smoke and ash in the air and 1 mile visibility. We were able to get a slip at Discovery Passage marina enabling us to get to Crabby Bob’s (and Abby) to pick up four Dungeness crabs and a dozen oysters. While docking – Randy Harley had just pulled in and was walking-by as we were tying up. Had a nice dinner with Randy and Judy and talked a lot about fishing. He cruises at 25 knots on F/V Northstar.

Anchored in front of Gunboat Bay looking up at the Grasshopper Pub.
Quite night; no wind and anchored in mud so not chain noise.
