Cosa tratta questo video
Maya and Aladino aboard their Cape George Cutter 36, Magic Carpet, continue north along the BC coast after rounding Cape Caution — the transition point where the Inside Passage gives way to more remote, rugged coastline beyond Vancouver Island.2:08 The leg runs toward Calvert Island, where the protected inside passage resumes and ocean swell flattens to calm water.3:31 Dozens of humpback whales surround the boat throughout the passage, at times requiring active dodging at slow sailing speeds.15:20 Aladino trolls for salmon at two knots and catches two fish in a single day; Maya, with no freezer aboard, cooks a miso butter salmon bowl for dinner, makes salmon dumplings the following day, and pickles the remainder using a 1981 Quadra Island community cookbook gifted by a friend.22:20 The anchorage for the night is Safety Cove on Calvert Island, entered through a narrow, shallow channel with Maya on the bowsprit watching depth while Aladino motors in slowly.21:38 The crew also stops briefly at a small exposed island with an unobstructed Pacific horizon before ducking back into sheltered water.2:22 Without refrigeration, the practical limit on salmon fishing is whatever fits in the fridge.23:34
