Bert terHart's Epic Journey

Bert, a resident of Gabriola island, BC, left Victoria on Vancouver Island for his lifelong dream of sailing single-handed around the world, west to east, via the five capes, using only celestial navigation, and all in seven months.

Remnants

This morning we contend with the remnants of yesterday's severe storm that passed NE of Seaburban's. The trough following the storm was interesting enough what with 15' wind waves, NE and SW swell to 6' and 42 knot gusts under rain clouds, without the small low embedded in it. That brought 34 knot northerly winds, cold hard rain and yet more swell. It would seem that down here, the fun never ends!

Here you can see the last of the embedded low trail off into the morning sun. Now, if the swell would go just go down a tad, we could have ourselves a proper days run....
