Brats in the Broughtons 2018

I have tried several calls a day for "Any C-Dory" and "Any C-Brat". No response.Maybe I was too far out.
I still think it would be a nice habit to try a call at 08, noon, and some evening time, (17, 18, 19 or 20). I'd set my cookoo to that. Mostly I have been doing it when I would come to an inlet junction, or a big open space, 2 -3 times a day.

I am waiting in line at the ferry terminal at Nanaimo, Duke Point, on my way home after a much too short 2 weeks up in the Broughtons. Always spectacular there. This year, from spectacular long, hard rains to absolute clear, dark sky nights and meeting some C-BRAT friends, it was a great time again. A pod of dolphin the size of a city block, a couple jumping so close to my boat I could have touched them, and the peace and quiet of a snug anchorage through a night of 20 to 30 blows with lightning, thunder, gale and waves, and I hardly saw a ripple. One night, anchored near a bank and trees aft, I woke to do an anchor check, the sky was so dark and the water so flat I could not tell where the horizon was, and the water was full of star reflections. Seemed I was floating in space. It is always good and often different. Expectations are rarely met and often exceeded. No schedule, no destination, just cruising with a whim and good music and a good book to help in the rainy spells. It is so hard to leave. I wonder if that is why there is a place up there called "God's Pocket"?

HI Larry, Missed you, Nancy and Capn Jack up north this year.
Had a funny question asked of me at Port Harvey by a gal there. Her and her husband were there on a boat. and sorry I don't remember the names, either hers or the boat.
:?: "Do you know everybody on C-Dory website, or that own C-Dorys?" :?:
Well now, I have been accused of a lot of things, but never of having a perfect memory.
She went on to say that friends of theirs used to have a C-Dory, the "NancyH" and wondered if I knew of them or their boat. When I told her yes and how, she was pretty impressed with the C-BRATS connection.
BTW, we had a great time at Port Harvey for Canada Day. Sorry you had to miss. Looking forward to seeing you and Capn Jack and the "cute" 16 up north next year.
