Day 3 Strait of Georgia to Desolation Sound

Yet another amazing and spectacular day.  An early departure (5 am) to cross the Strait of Georgia.  Nosed our way into the Strait to discover completely flat water and no wind.  The entire 5 hour crossing was smooth with only a few ripples to rock the boat.  We made such good time that we opted to continue north to Desolation Sound.  We anchored in Squirrel Cove at approximately 4:30.  Long but really quite an easy day.  A beer on the stern to celebrate, an early dinner and plans to rise again early tomorrow to catch the slack tides for running the rapids - Yuculta, Dent, Greenpoint & Whirlpool.  The grandeur is hard to describe.
