Pacific Grace 2009 - Trip 3

We enjoyed a pleasant start to our trip getting away from the dock in Victoria around 1400hrs. Wind was light for the rest of the day so all were in favour of continuing up through Georgia Strait to Savory Island located on the doorstep of Desolation Sound. Our night run was spectacular with breathtaking sunsets and warm temps. Many had the chance to steer by compass for the first time and we anchored off Savory´s north shore at 0700hrs. Presently lessons on tides and terms are being carried out while we wait for the tide to drop and expose the beautiful white sand beaches this island is known for. Our afternoon will be filled with games on the beach and sailing to our next destination. Already this group is comming together and seems comfortable in sharing with each other, a great start.
