Friday 24 May
We got 3 crabs at Nettle Basin but only one was both male and borderline of legal size and after some debate we decided to release all three.
The day was bitter cold and without much visibility. All of it was spent motoring boringly in a straight line up Grenville Channel with only one person outside at any time. I did a number of hours starting in persistent rain that was rivuletting from my face. Then Laszlo spent the rest of the day exposed but fortunately for him it wasn't as wet anymore. Inside we mostly did some reading and napping.
Before the anchor had touched the bottom, Jenny had ignited the heater and we all enjoyed its caloric output very much that evening.
We're now roughly 20 miles from Prince Rupert, the last town in British Columbia (where this e-mail will probably be sent from) before we hop over to Alaska. We should arrive in Ketchikan Sunday or Monday.
