Ship's Log:
Last night under the cover of darkness we slipped by victoria heading
for port Townsend. I think we fooled most people and were mainly
undetected. We cleared customs at 0800hrs this morning with a very cheerful
customs officer. We are tied up to a brand new dock that has been offered
to us at no charge. As well our reception here has been second to none.
People are constantly visiting the boat, congratulating trainees in town
and welcoming them home, offering all kinds of help from showers and
laundry to vehicles and free drinks at the local pub. Trainees are enjoying
the town with all the small cafes, book stores and many ice cream outlets.
We will be here for a couple of days before re-entering Canada at an
undisclosed port,
