It was a fine day for sailing Haro Strait. So that's exactly what I did. There was a pleasant 10 Kt. Southwesterly blowing, so despite the fact that I was fighting the ebb tide, I sailed through Banes Channel. There was a cruise ship sailing South on the strait, so I set an intercept course and tried to board her. Unfortunately she managed to outrun me.
Trouper 2 performed flawlessly and it was a very enjoyable couple of hours.
