Qué cubre este vídeo
Alfy and Devlin navigate a 46-mile passage across the Strait of Georgia toward Desolation Sound Marine Park.7:26 A 3 a.m. southeast gale at Tribune Bay forces the crew to monitor nearby vessels, specifically a large catamaran with significant windage that drifts closer during the night.0:46 After the wind subsides, the pair sails toward Tuxedo Island, spotting humpback whales along the way.2:54 Upon arrival at Desolation Sound, they anchor in 32 feet of water at Melanie Cove, a protected anchorage where stern-tying is common but mid-basin anchoring remains an option.7:37 The crew explores the area by dinghy, observing eelgrass, crab, and starfish in the channels.11:09 They hike a trail connecting Melanie Cove to Laura Cove, noting the path passes through dense forest and old homestead sites.10:51 Tidal fluctuations in the region require careful planning for dinghy beaching, as water levels at the head of Laura Cove shift significantly throughout the day.9:33
