Currently about 65 miles S of Icy Bay. Some of my favorite coastline is out of sight on the horizon to the north, with Mt. St Elias, the Malaspina glacier and Mount Logan.

Captain’s Report – Day 4 – In Alaskan Waters!
We struggled along sailing most of the night under sail, motoring a little as the wind went behind us. We are now clear of Haida Gwaii and “in Alaska waters.”
Captain’s Report – Day 3 – South End Haida Gwaii
Had a pleasant, fast sail across Queen Charlotte Sound entrance to Haida Gwaii. We focused on birds, with sightings of brown albatross, petrels, something like sheerwaters, and puffins. Lots of puffins.
Captain’s Report – Day 2 – West Side Vancouver Island
Sailed most of the night under main alone, but have a bit of jib pulled out now on starboard gibe.
Dogbark to Alaska Again – Day 1
Get yer trackers loaded, folks! Dogbark is sailing north to Alaska again. It’s fun to watch their progress as they go.
