August 13, 2017 – We picked up our passengers from Fisherman’s Bay to sail north through Upright Channel and on to circumnavigate Blakely Island. Blakey Island is another one of our favorites with the east side ecosystem so different from the west side rainforest. Gusting winds added excitement to our sail. Bald eaglet of Upright Head has ventured above the nest waiting to fly the coop.
