June 6, 2024 – Sailed north quickly on the flood tide with reports of Biggs/Transient orcas, the T123’s and T86A1’s, at Battleship Island. We met the orcas at Green Point, Spieden Island, and sailed alongside to White Rock. As the tide switched to ebb we began our sail back to Friday Harbor watching the sunset from the Wasp Islands.
