We will likely not have email or phone now until the 16th so just wanted to say Cheers. Will update then as we will be spending 3 days unwinding before Cathy and the kids fly home and my crew fly down to cross the gulf with me. Blessings. Joe
Amongst the Working Boats – Petersburg
http://gallery.me.com/sundogjoe/100724 Thursday June 9th We pushed against the tide working our way through the narrows for most of the way slowed down to 4kts at one point as we pushed against the flood.

In Wrangell
Wrangell http://gallery.me.com/sundogjoe/100717 Yesterday morning we woke up to wind and in fact we had been bouncing around most of the night at the dock which actually helped the triplets to sleep.

Southeast Diesel & Electric – Rude Business
Just wanted to put the word out that I tried calling this business today and was treated very poorly by the staff. This might not represent the whole company but the person answered the phone was very rude and I just hung up. So just a heads up in case you need diesel work in […]
Prince Rupert To Brundige Inlet
Woke up at 4:45 hoping for a calm exit out of Prince Rupert but the fog was pea soup thick so we sat tight until it finally started to clear around 8:00. It was a good thing we waited as the Venn passage is a tricky windy route that requires some attention and it was […]
