Up at around 8:00 after a very quiet night. There's no wind in the anchorage but a nice blue line blowing through Sidney Channel. Forecast is calling for light winds increasing to SW 10 - 20 Kts. late in the day. The ebb tide runs until just after noon. If I can make it to Banes Channel before the ebb turns to flood, I'll not only have made good time but wont have to spend a lifetime sailing through.
Beating into the South wind extended the trip by some 3 NM. but we still managed to get through Banes before the tide turned. I swear the longest part of the journey was sailing from Banes to my pin but eventually I made it and T2 is safely put to bed.
Now the work begins...
