Appy-Hour? It Must be Lagoon Cove


Another foggy morning of business meetings for me.   That kept us stationary while I dealt with those commitments.


One by one, the boats departed Waddington Bay.

We pulled the anchor at 1130 and followed a cute little Vancouver 27 sailboat out of the bay (you can see it in the cover picture).   We played tag all afternoon as we were both headed to Lagoon Cove.  Fortunately, the wind was light, so we beat them to the dock.







We arrived about 1430 and were greeted dockside by three people ready to take our lines.   Nice.








Lagoon Cove is famous for their "Appy-Hour".   They provide unlimited fresh boiled prawns.   Each boat brings an appetizer to share and it's a wonderful potluck!  Karen whipped up a pizza as everyone appreciates pizza.   It went over well and was snarfed up.













Here are a bunch of pictures from Appy-Hour.



















What???

And what we did or didn't do about it... Kabola furnace ship hot water loop, inop. ·        We never did find the fix for this.    Costica (Kabola genius) was aboard to help diagnose while we were still in Anacortes. Windlass ·        Turned out to be the breaker (Doh!).    Just closed the breaker and voi-la!    It worked. Thrusters (bow & stern).   When we moved to Lithium batteries and installed new chargers, we forgot to account for the AGMs on the thrusters, so they had no chargers.    ·        Installed AC-DC chargers (bow and stern) that run off the inverter.    Not ideal, but it was expeditious.    Woody came to Campbell River and brought two chargers and installed them – Thanks, Woody. Propane system for the gas cooktop.    We had an intermittent very low flame to no flame if multiple burners were on....

In Foggy Bay, Alaska

We are experimenting with Blogger.   Please be patient and we welcome all well-intentioned advice. This morning at 0742, we departed Prince Rupert, BC (see pic on right) for Brundige Inlet, BC, but after a few hours of motoring NNW, the weather was so favorable in Dixon Entrance that we decided to continue on to Foggy Bay, Alaska.   We cleared US Customs while underway via CBPRoam without any issues.   We snaked into the inner bay and dropped the hook at 1422.   And Foggy Bay is aptly named; visibility is about 1/2 mile as verified by radar. Foggy Bay has a super tight tricky entrance to the inner bay.   Beware the known uncharted rock just south of the islet as you enter the inner channel (I added it to our charts, see pic below).  After a scary bit of steering to avoid what I thought were rocky shoals along the east side of the west islands, we are at last anchored in the inner bay; 35’ deep with 115’ of chain out; safe and snug.   The “rocky shoals”...
