Up at the crack of dawn on Saturday, we mostly power and partly power-sail to anchor overnight in Clam Cove, between Kuper and Thetis Islands. Our trip up the Trincomali Channel was uneventful, save earlier, when we dodged two passing ferries in the Swanson Channel. We had a very peaceful night at anchor. Someone named Joe relayed our position to Barbara for the Great Northern Boaters Net Sunday morning. Propagation was zilcho from Clam Cove to Sidney. Later, we departed at 10:00 a.m. in order to reach the Porlier Pass between Valdes and Galiano Islands close to slack tide at 10:45 am. Averaging 7.43 knots, we sailed 65 percent of the way from Clam Cove to Vancouver, arriving at 2:15 pm. We're staying two nights at the Vancouver Rowing Club (where a very friendly person, Michelle, checked us in). Tomorrow, we're taking the Hop-on/Hop-off bus around town, so more to come!
