Johan and Malin sail their boat from Prince William Sound across the Gulf of Alaska to Elfin Cove, a 306-nautical-mile passage.13:29 They time their departure to catch a high-pressure system, which provides favorable downwind conditions with 15 to 25 knots of wind.18:02 The crew uses a wind vane to steer on a broad reach, maintaining one reef in the mainsail to manage gusts and improve steering stability.17:55 During the transit, they encounter dense fog, strong tidal rips at the entrance to Prince William Sound, and a minor leak in a galley sink drainage hose, which they resolve by closing the seacocks.19:23 Although they initially planned to stop at Lituya Bay, they bypass the anchorage due to unfavorable tidal timing and an approaching low-pressure system.23:50 They arrive in Elfin Cove at night after motoring the final stretch against a two-knot current.29:34 Careful monitoring of AIS and radar is essential in these waters, as many local fishing vessels operate without AIS transponders.21:19
