August 8, 2015 Underway Early Once Again


       Red sky in the morning... we set out for Isaacs Harbour to meet up with Bill and Paula Page, they are cruising East on their adequate West coast style troller “Serianna”. We had an easy passage of 25 miles with a quartering wind and arrived first so decided to explore up the Eastern arm and see the Cable Ferry which is a blast from the past, the ferry pulled back and forth on a cable from one side of the bay to the other. The name boards on the side read “Keep Well Back” a very utilitarian name.  


      We had the chance to watch some Bald Eagles and Kingfisher close up along the shore, but getting good pictures eluded us. Onward down the bay and across to the West side and into Webbs Cove.
      We weren't there 10 minutes when the Serianna came into view and eventually anchored next to us. Bill came over for a chat, to see and ogle over our GPS plotters. (Two Smart Phones!) He felt so bad for us that he invited us to supper aboard Serianna. Kathy brought the salad and home-made croutons.

      We had a nice meal and visit with the Pages and their yellow kitten “Percy”and were ferried back and forth by Bill in his tender Agnes with his electric motor. Serianna is as near perfect as a vessel can be.
