A beautiful day sailing with Tania.
Not a cloud in the sky. Winds N 10kts in Cadboro Bay. Deminished in Haro Strait. Bucking the ebb tide, we had to start the engine to power through Banes Channel. At one point I was looking at the light and we were actually standing still.
Beautiful view of Mt. Baker, Rainier and the Olympic mountain range. Felt like the height of summer.
There were a handful of other boats out (on top of the ever present sailing classes). We tacked a few times in Haro Strait before returning through Banes and a 'fly by' of Willows Beach.
Oliver has re-set his mooring well clear of mine so that's a huge relief.
