Diverting slightly to Neah Bay which is just inside Strait of Juan de Fuca. Need fuel before proceeding the 50 more miles down to Victoria.
170 miles to go, but fog and rain in the forecast ;-(
No wind, motored all day. Nice warm weather for a change though. Caught an albacore.
Motoring through the center of the low.
Another very squally day. :-(
Windy night. 30 plus. Hit 11 knots with just double reefed main. Yow.
Cold. Brrrr.
Saw a shark swimming along on the surface today. Maybe 8 feet.
Made it to the north side of the high. SW winds have us heading east!
Motoring since 0230 local. We are on the NW corner of the high coming over the top. Hope to see SW winds by tomorrow, then direct BC
On the west side of the high. Looking to round the top tomorrow (cross fingers)
Half squally day, half nice day. Saw a great green flash though, at sunset!
Squalls, no squalls. Nice afternoon, now the clouds coming in. Still just stuck on 60 degree wind angle heading north.
Nice day. 22 knots, blue sky, few squalls, 1.5 m sea. We're waving at our friends in San Francisco (37 degrees and change) as we pass heading north to get around the high.
Beautiful day. Finally no lightning last night and 15-18 knots with blue skies today. Did 140 nm
Still night time squall/thunderstorms. Nice day today though. The high is forming solidly up north of us. Looking forward to getting up there and "turning right".
Lightning in squalls for the second night. Yuck.
Looks like a squally night. Lots of big CBs around. Cross fingers!
Still close hauled heading due north. Hoping to get more favorable wind tomorrow. Squally, so hard to match wind and sails.
Left Oahu on Saturday, 8/8 bound for Victoria, BC. Trip plan is 2600 miles. Oh boy.
