We're in Doig Anchorage tonight, three nights north of Shearwater. After tonight there's just four more anchorages before we arrive in Prince Rupert on the 13th where Jeff will depart; Mick and Yoshi will join me for the return trip. When we arrived at this Anchorage the niche I had identified for us to anchor in was a little small. A little too cramped if there's a need to swing. Concerned that the wind may shift as forecasted, we decided to stern tie to shore. The way I normally stern tie is to send the dinghy ashore with one end of the stern tie line and one end of a tag line. The rope goes around a tree and the tagline is used to pull it back to the boat. Easy Peezy. In the morning all you have to do is pull one end of the line and pull it aboard. No need to go ashore. Easy. Jeff decided to try a new method. It didn't work out but you gotta give him credit for trying.
