We are about to head into Petersburg and of course, there is an Alaskan State Ferry(Taku) at the dock that will probably be leaving just as we are.
It'll take just over 3 hours to get through Wrangell Narrows and out the other end. Then over to St. Johns Cove for the night. We'll be launching Puff when we get there as we hit a big dead head(big floating log) a few hours ago. It was about 2 1/2 feet in diameter so we will be checking for any damage. So far, we have found no water coming in but want to see if there is any cracks we will need to repair once back in Port Townsend. Doubtful with Zephyrs thick hull, but better safe than sorry. We split the log in half as we hit it. I dropped it into neutral and powered back as fast as I could so nothing hit the prop at least.
OK, I have to close now as we are heading into Petersburg and I have to start searching for an internet signal I can use.
Stay tuned for more to come.
