It’s June! And our summer sailing season has just begun.

Here we are raising our sails on a new season! Let’s hope this JuneGloom season goes away in short order and our regularly scheduled program of perfect day sailing conditions sets in.

Until then, don’t be afraid to get some early season sailing on the books. We are having some phenomenally nice conditions between the wet spells and all of our sails come with a generous cancellation policy for a full refund (with 24 hrs notice) and a Good Day Guarantee - we won’t take you out in the rain just to make a buck - we will work with you to reschedule or refund you to make sure you are going to get the blissful experience you’ve imagined! (Unless of course that’s your cup of tea - bring your foulies it’s another La Niña year)

With Wooden Boat Festival cancelled this week we figured we’d fly the flags anyways - just for fun! If you’re looking for something to do, we still have space available this weekend and there will still be plenty of boats out on the water!

Anyone know this lovely little boat? I caught some photos of them yesterday with the Orcas in the background - I thought they might appreciate!

ORCAS! Spotted today! Off of Point Hudson and passing in front of Chetzemoka Park. What a special treat.

Did a little photo shoot today for Washington State Tourism! Figured it was time to get the flags out! And we still have some openings for sails this weekend. One slot each day Friday Saturday And Sunday, let’s fill them up! This wonderful sailing weather is too good to miss.

Some pretty big tide swings we’ve been having around here! -3.6 to 9.3 yesterday. Everyday I go sail out to show people the current line where Port Townsend Bay meets the “moving sidewalk” of Admiralty Inlet, a waterway only 3.7 miles wide through which 98% of the tidal flow of Puget Sound passes through. That’s a LOT of water!

Super special time of the year here. The long long days, highest high tides, lowest low tides and watching the full strawberry moon rise in the twilight of a spectacular sunset! I have so much appreciation for this world and this community!

Thanks for bringing your sister out sailing when she came to visit! I love taking out locals who have family in town! What a great way to show off Port Townsend!

It was one of those very rare days today when we saw ORCAS! Can you see one in the photo? Two transient males together right outside of Port Townsend Bay! More photos to follow as I get them back from my passengers. ***all MMPA and WDFW rules and regulations were followed during this encounter***

Look who came to visit! I love seal pup season in the spring and seeing all the newly weaned babies as they figure out the world - sometimes they are just so curious.

05/15/2021
