Today we left Port McNeill for Big Frypan Bay at Penrose Island and we were not alone. There were five boats on our pier and four of us left before 5:00 in the morning. The sailing vessel Rita, not planning on going around Cape Caution, stayed snug as a bug. We had a good crossing, wave 1-4 feet with a couple of 5-6 foot waves, light wind, some boost from the current, and intermittent fog.
We passed a fishing boat leaving Big Frypan Bay as we entered. We left the current, winds, waves, and fog behind us to be alone in a calm bay with big beautiful blue skies.
