Small group of Orcas in Possession Sound (just south of Clinton, Whidbey Island).
We had an uneventful transit through the Swinomish Channel and into Skagit Bay – unlike last time with all the speeding boats. (La Conner redeemed.)
We headed toward Coupeville, Whidbey Island, which is another place that is a bit questionable. It’s a very busy, small dock – many day trippers. Fortunately, we were hailed and waved into a spot after only a few minutes of arrival. We asked about other boats being rafted to us – like last time. They said they didn’t think they’d do that other than with the smaller boats. Most places are not allowing rafting due to social distancing. There aren’t other options in Penn Cove though, so they do their best to fit everyone in.
Things calmed down in the evening…and no other boats were tied to us.
Coupeville Wharf
Our next planned stop was Langley but they are at capacity
at the dock tonight…and we’re not too keen on anchoring there again. So…heading
to Eagle Harbor.
