Ship's Log:
A great first day for everyone today. With all on board and safety introductions completed we slipped our lines and were away by 1400hrs. With a calm forecast in hand our destination is Calvert Island, 60 miles north of Port Hardy. Shortly after leaving the harbour we were able set our sails and make progress north. With all lowers and a jib topsail set the Grace was moving nicely at 6 kts. it was nice to be sailing in the long Pacific swell again. Today also brought Orcaīs, fish and a spectacular moon that we will be enjoying throughout our night run tonight. All are well and this group looks like a great group already.
