Land Ho!

On July 27 we are starting to see boats on the AIS. 50 miles off shore and there 8 ships around us. At 7pm, 25 miles out, I climb into the cockpit and see land - Vancouver Island. By 11pm we should be at anchor in Neah Bay. But, as they say on the Pacific Seafarer's Net, "It's the crunchy bits around the edges that are the dangerous parts." I don't anticipate a problem though. We will be arriving after dark but we have been there before and know what to look for.
