The 83-foot gaff cutter Tally Ho sails north from the San Juan Islands through the Gulf Islands to Port McNeil, British Columbia, as part of a multi-stage expedition toward Haida Gwaii.0:14 During the transit, the crew tests a jackyard topsail in light winds, using a release line to unfurl the sail from the topmast and gaff.5:56 To manage the boat’s heavy helm, the crew employs a tiller pilot connected to a trim tab on the rudder, which provides sufficient leverage to steer the vessel.11:17 The passage includes navigating tidal rapids near Desolation Sound, requiring precise timing to avoid dangerous whirlpools and overfalls.20:21 After rounding Cape Caution in favorable weather, the crew stops in Port McNeil to provision for the upcoming crossing of the notoriously unpredictable Hecate Strait.30:08 The vessel’s performance in varied conditions remains stable, though heavy pitching during motoring once shook the anchor loose, necessitating better securing on the foredeck.15:01 Proper timing and weather planning remain the primary strategies for navigating high-current passages.
