Farewell Sitka, Alaska

We leave Sitka tomorrow (June 17) midday and head out to some fishing spots George has marked on the charts. We are getting antsy and ready to "blow this pop stand". We will anchor out "drop the hook" and fish "drop the baited hooks" with hopes of a beautiful Ling Cod, and definitely some shrimp and crabs in those traps.

We are up to 17 hours and 56 minutes of daylight.

We have had a great visit here and now that the canvas and upholstery work is done, we are ready to start the actual cruising. Teal is all cleaned up and the dodgers look great.

Once we get to Petersburg, we will more than likely have internet and I will post a photo of the finished project.... that should be about a week from now. See you then.
