Rudee inlet

Got up, made some coffee, looked at some maps. Then headed out for the open ocean. We were expecting a nice calm day on the water, wasn't so calm. The rollers were hitting us from the side so we just rocked and rolled all day. Then the seas got messy, so now we are rocking and rolling and bouncing. Normally this isn't too much of an issue if you are in it for a couple of hours, 12 hours and it's an issue. My navigator stopped navigating, I'll just leave it at that.

"this is warship xxx calling power vessel, we are 2 nm off your stern, switch to 72 and answer". That'll wake you up. I look around and sure enough there's a big ole battle ship behind us. Just wanted us to identify our selves and let them know what we were doing etc... Big thanks for protecting our waters.

So we are plugging along. Finally got to AC and everyone started feeling better once we docked to fuel up. We covered some serious ground. Stopped at Dom's for the night and ate some great home cooking. Headed off early to out run some storms.
