Roy got a Canadian fishing license this morning. Also some lures and stuff.
He let me take the boat away from the dock for the first time. There was no wind and we had plenty of room, so it was easy.
We went to the Esso dock for diesel, but we were a couple of miles down the channel before we remembered we needed gas for the generator, so we had to double back. We tried to go to the Shell dock, which was nearby, but it was closed, so we went to the Chevron dock, which was almost as far back as the Esso dock. All this cost us a couple of hours, so it was noon by the time we got away from Prince Rupert. We had hoped to spend the night at Lowe Inlet, but we didn't have time to get there, so we anchored in the same quiet, secluded cove by Kumealon Inlet that we'd anchored in on the way north. This time we didn't have it all to ourselves, however; two other boats arrived shortly after we did. There was plenty of room for all of us.
Roy put out the crab trap and also tried to fish. Hope he has better luck with the crabs than he did with the fish.
