51 miles 7 hours
We walked into town to the Java Dock before leaving the marina. Fred told Ian (the harbormaster) that if he saw us again today it was because the boat was for sale. Well, the port engine started right up and kept running all day. We traveled up Malaspina Channel to Desolation Sound. It is hot and there is not a cloud in the sky. We are starting to get closer to those snow capped mountains. The water is gently rippled and there is a small breeze. We don’t think it gets better than this. As we head into Desolation Sound and turn into Malaspina Inlet we are now into one of Canada’s marine parks. Merlin has been a big boy today and didn’t need to be cuddled while we were under way. There is a small sailboat in Grace Harbour but the bay is large enough for several boats. We open the windows and doors to enjoy the quiet beauty. At about 6:00 PM we see Raven come into the harbour and anchor in a little corner.
