Friday, July 6 Allison Harbour to Kwakume Inlet 4 ½ hours 51 miles


West Sea Otter buoy reports 1.0 meter seas.  It’s a go.  We will round Cape Caution today.  The sun is breaking out of the clouds and it is a beautiful day.  As we neared Cape Caution we encountered 3-4 foot rolling waves.  We upped the RPM to 2000 and traveled at about 12 knots to get out of the waves sooner.  In Fitz Hugh Channel we only had 1-2 kts of wind and a following see.  It was quite nice to sit on the bow in the sun.  Kwakume Inlet is quite large but has a rocky entrance.  We tucked in safely and were surprised that we were the only boat there.
