Pender Harbour

11 June 2007
John asked about starting out for Princess Louisa Inlet later today, so I did some research. I found another anchorage just before the entrance to Jervis Inlet, but Jervis Inlet itself is 46 miles long. If we have wind behind us so that we could do six knots or better, that would still be almost eight hours. It's raining now, so we're going to stay here another night and hope for better weather. We've seen the inside of clouds plenty of times. No need to go to the end of a fiord to see some more.
