“Red sky at morning, sailor take warning”………….

Despite the red sky this morning, we are up at dawn, headed for points south. According to the weather we should have light winds until noon.

As we head aross Rivers Inlet the seas are a bit gnarly, but nothing we can’t handle. Fortunately, by the time we get to Smith Inlet, the seas have calmed somewhat, so we continue on to Cape Caution, rather than ducking into Millbrook Cove, which was our Plan “B”. We feel fortunate that there isn’t any fog this morning, like there usually is here this time of year.

As we get closer to Slingsby Channel, the wind and seas pick up to the point where we decide to head into Miles Inlet for the night. Hopefully, the wind will be light enough to leave for Blunden Harbour in the morning.
