June 28,  2012 - We are tethered dockside at Dawson's Landing. With yesterday's favorable wind and tides, we could not pass up the chance to make the long run wing and wing down Fisher Channel from Ocean Falls (7+ knots most of the way). The trade off was missing the sail and fishing down the outside, but weather had turned a bit snotty out there so perhaps all was for the best. We will have to save a visit to Kayak Cove and the amazing fishing grounds around the Goose Group on the outside for another trip. But many thanks to Jim at Ocean Falls for sharing very detailed sailing and fishing directions which give me great confidence that we will return to that area as soon as we can.

This morning we will fuel up here at Dawson's as soon as they open and then make for Fly Basin.  Fly is what is termed locally as a "bomb proof"anchorage, excellent protection in all storm conditions. We will anchor at Fly Basin poised to scoot around Cape Caution like a bad dog on a good carpet. Sorry for that, it just seemed appropriate as the whole while we may have a nervous look, be moving as fast as possible and feel we are getting away with something.
