We had an early start this morning at about 6:45am and hauled anchor. The weather had let up a little which was nice. We set out past the Penrose Island, Cape Caution, Egg Island and Pine Island and across Queen Charlotte straight towards Port Hardy. On the way we saw a humpback whale and some more porpoises. We were keeping our eyes peeled for a "raft" of sea otters but to no avail. I was skeptical whether Otters had the dexterity to build rafts so I didn't have my hopes up anyway. We made it into Port Hardy with plenty of time to spare. Margot, Sohrabh and I were all on the same flight so we said goodbye to Passing Cloud and Russ, Dean and Eric. Cheers very much to everyone for a fantastic few days on the sea. Its a bit of a worry that it makes me wonder if slogging it out in the office is what I want to be doing. Hopefully I can get back on the yacht soon. Penrose islands, past cape caution and across Queen Charlotte straight. Check back here when I can get some other assorted photos off the crew including one of all of us to post on here.
