Day 25

This may be our last night on the Pacific Ocean. If we can maintain our current speed and course, we should reach the strait of Juan de Fuca in the late morning. Our current plan is to not stop at Neah Bay and continue down the strait to Port Angeles. This should allow us to reach Seattle the following evening.

This is, of course, very dependent on our arrival time into the strait to make the flood current. If we get there too late, we will stop in Neah Bay. Wish us all good wind in the right direction!

We are starting to see some signs of land, pieces of kelp floating in the water, a fishing boat, and different kinds of birds (Tern’s I think). Other than that we live in a small grey world. It’s been complete cloud cover for the past few days, with occasional light showers. More rain is likely tonight.

Our current position is

Lat: 47 19.0 N
Lon: 126 48.6

We are all very excited about reaching landfall.
