Echo Bay, Sucia Island
We sailed from Sucia Island down to Friday Harbor yesterday (Friday of course). It was a delightful three hour trip but we had to leave early to catch the tides. At one point in Presidents Channel we hit 8.5 knots with the assist of a following current.
So far Friday Harbor is the best ‘one stop’ port we have found West of Anacortes. One stop means propane, groceries, diesel, gas, pump out, showers, and water for our tanks. The Saturday farmer’s market was a bonus.

Our haul from the market
We are staying for longer then we normally would to give me time to do some boat maintenance. It’s difficult on anchor to go below and fix things. Beside, I can get parts in town just a few blocks from the marina.
If all goes well we will be back out Tuesday, headed to Reid Harbor on Stuart Island. This should be our last stop till entering Canada later in the week.
