Good to see this part of the world through someone else's eyes! I wish I had seen you blokes out on the water, but I only happened past when you were packing up in the car park. Had a brief chat to John about his Explorer, and he pointed me to your YT channel. I watched this video closely for a glimpse of my Finn 8 on its mooring in the passage, but it must have ended up on your out-takes. Watching your videos is a good substitute for being on the water. (Can't be out there every day.) You should ask your companions for footage of Kate Louise underway to show off how pretty she is. PS Nice attempt at boarding the Wangi Queen! Almost worthy of Captain Jack Sparrow.

Morning Paul,thanks for another interesting video,it makes a great start to Sunday morning here in the UK. Lemon tree passage looks like another great place to sail. And it just goes to show the flexibility of the small boats in the fleet you sail with. So it looks like fair weather for the time of the year,good sailing good small boats and great people.

The tiny fleet of vessels travels from our State Capital Olympia 100 miles generally northward with nightly stops about every 12 to max of 16 miles per day n ends in 9 days at Pt Townsend on the famous Straits of Juan de Fuca. I’m hopeful wishing to have My Michelle ready for the 2024 July summer event if health is okay n I can get someone to care give that week plus. If not I’ll still follow the group via internet in drydock. Cheer Mate, Nick.
