July 3, 2017 – Bond Sound


Off to our favourite anchorage, Burdwood Group.  Enroute, we see two BYC boats, “Kingfisher” and “Escape” who are making their way south.  Both are being “posers” in front of Lacey Falls – great photo you two!  A few dolphins along the way, but nothing in the numbers we are used to seeing.  Perhaps there is no more food for them or the Orca have been chowing down.  Gary and Wendys stay at Kwatsi was a good exchange of stories, one was of the Orca corralling the porpoise into Kwatsi Bay and then having a smorgasboard, Nature is cruel!  This apparently happened twice in the last two years.  The bloodbath continued until the Orca were satiated.

After anchoring, a bickering session ensued. Actually, more like a STFU verbal exchange, good thing we were the only people in there, someone would have made me wash out my mouth with soap!  Getting a sternline to shore is stressful at the best of times, but when the captain forgets to tie the boat end off it gets a little hairier!  Dumb-ass!  A wet butt and pantleg and a un-graceful dumping into the dinghy, we manage to get both ends back to the boat for a tie up.
