It's probably hard to make out in the picture but this is a tug boat pulling logs. We first saw this from a great distance and it looked like a low island that was perhaps exposed by the tide. As we approached we could tell it was moving albeit very slowly; the tug and his load were moving at about 1.5kts (we're slowly crusing by him at 7kts). The log raft was massive; it was probably 120yards long and about 60ft wide.
Late the following day we heard him call in his approach to Vancouver Marine Traffic.
Hi Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't posted any comments to let you know I'm reading. I check in every few days and love your photos and updates. The trip looks incredible so far.
We're headed to Friday Harbor tomorrow for Sea Kayaking and will be with you in the wetness and spirit on the water. We miss you and can't wait for more photos when you return.
:)
Anita and Jessee
