May 23 - Deer Harbor

We did the short run from Anacortes to Deer Harbor. The journey was uneventful but my docking was a bit “rough,” taking me three attempts.

The dock space reserved for our yacht club is a side tie at the outside of one of the docks (visualize the top edge of a capital “T”). Normally this docking arrangement is pretty straightforward but between the wind today, the dock orientation and our boat’s layout, everything was working against us. Nevertheless, with the help of a kind individual on the dock, the third-time was the charm.

We needed to stop at Deer Harbor because Marcia had a package shipped here when it became apparent it wouldn’t arrive before our departure on the 16th. The package was waiting for Marcia when we arrived so our next leg will take us into Canada. We haven’t finalized which port of call in Canada will be our first.

Today’s mileage – 21.0

Cumulative mileage – 87.1
