Cruising the Gulf Islands of British Columbia, the crew of *Sea Dream of Clyde* navigates variable winds and strong tidal currents while transiting from the San Juan Islands toward Nanaimo. The passage involves clearing Canadian customs, which includes a boat search, and navigating high-traffic areas like Dodd Narrows.2:31 While motoring at five knots near Ruxton Passage, the vessel strikes a submerged log, necessitating an underwater inspection of the rudder and keel for damage.13:32 The crew also encounters a diesel spill in an anchorage at De Courcy Island, forcing them to relocate.14:26 Throughout the trip, the crew manages fluctuating wind conditions by frequently reefing the main and genoa, and they utilize local tidal currents to maintain speed. The transit concludes with preparations for a scheduled haul-out at Newcastle Marina to perform maintenance, including wet sanding the hull.22:05
