It's about 2:30PM and, atypically, the wind in the Strait has dropped considerably. It was 15 kts this AM and now is down around 6 kt from the WSW.
http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=46088 Meanwhile according to the Canadian Current Atlas, the current is starting to flood and is up to a couple of kts, West to East. The Spot shows Andrew and Tom, Team Mastgate.com to be on their way, not to Victoria, but to San Juan Island! The current won't really start ebbing until darkness sets in tonight. Rowing a Potter 19 is tough. The current plus leeway would not seem to give them anywhere to anchor We wish them well! Bob |

Mastgate just arrived Victoria finish. A long day for Andy, but not so long as a certain Everglades incident...
