SUNSHINE! Sometime during the night the rain stopped. The day was clear, sunny, warm, and calm. What a contrast to yesterday!
Roy made a feeble attempt to retrieve the crab trap with his fishing line but soon gave up. Time is more valuable than the trap; we don't want to waste any of this beautiful day.
Enjoyed a delightful cruise south. In Fitzhugh Sound, there was enough of a breeze to raise the mainsail and headsail, but we continued running the engine, too. Zoomed along at 6 1/2 to 7 knots.
Covered 54 miles today. Anchored in Safety Cove just before dark. About a dozen other boats were there, but there was plenty of room. If this good weather holds out, we'll cross Queen Charlotte Strait tomorrow and reach Port Hardy.
Beautiful full moon tonight.
