On June 12, we got off the dock at 0915....lazy people!  got some fuel and headed out with the intention of going to Anita Bay but we wanted to put out prawn pots and the commercial guys were dragging for prawns so we changed our destination to Roosevelt Harbor on Zarambo Island where there is a nice little USFS dock but first you go by and interesting chain sculpture of a raven on a rock! (how's that for a run on sentence????)

Then you mosey into the bay to the dock

.When the forest service boat got there they weren't too happy about someone's storing their crab pots on the FS dock.  The next morning we did pull some very nice crab from that harbor and this was our view as we left.  We left early because at 0630 we only had 3.3 ft of water under our boat at the dock.  Can you say OUTTA HERE????

                                                                   Quite a pretty place.
The next morning we set our course for Port Protection on the NW corner of Prince of Wales Island.  Jubal, a former medic I worked with, used to live there but has since left.  I did get a few shots....interesting place.

 I met a lady fisher-person named Ellen that I spent some time with and got to know a bit about commercial fishing in a small boat......not for me!

From Port Protection, on the 14th, we headed across flat Sumner Strait to Port Beauclerc where Vancouver rode out a horrible storm in 1793!  Our water was calm but we did feel akin to George!
We pulled in no prawns in spite of being told where we could find them

                                                          Port Beauclerc on Kuiu Island
Awfully pretty place.  We will go back there again.
