Shearwater to Fougnar Bay

Saturday - July 19 - The rain has stopped and we are following Raven Spirit to Fougnar Bay. They are heading south the day after tomorrow (giving them a week to get home) and we will be heading back out to Spider Group Fishing. we hope to make our Crossing sometime in the next week and catching up to the "outstation Tour!"

Well, we said our goodbyes to Raven Spirit and spent 2 nights in Fougnar Bay. One more Halibut for the freezer and a change of weather. I think we got one months worth of rain in just a few days. Seas are calm and we will head to Fury Cove to wait weather to find the ideal crossing back south.

Profiles of who we are

"Shaman II" is a 48' 1973 fiberglass "Gulf Commander". Twin Caterpillar 3116. 500 gal Fuel (Gulp!) and 500 gal fresh water. We have owned her for 27 years and we are the second owner. We are a self sufficient cruising machine with all the trappings of home. Mike and I are retired now and every chance we get, we "Live the Dream". We have one fabulous son who is the proud owner of his own boat, "Eye Candy"....aptly named after his sweetie, Shannon! Three of the sweetest Grandchildren you could have....Mr. Keaton and Coco (Cohen aka the Pope), and baby Harrison (Bob).

Mike and I have spent our summers for the last 45 years scouring the coast to see all that we can see in every nook and cranny our boat will fit into. The earlier years were spent as any normal boating family would, bringing our son and friends to Desolation Sound for 2 weeks of swimming! These days, we spend most of our time mid coast. Three trips to Alaska under our belt and 25 plus years hanging out in the Central to North Coast.
