Happy Sunday Funday! We're finally making our way back into the Puget Sound region after a quick 2-week trip down the coast into Oregon (see links below to watch our previous 3 videos documenting parts of this trip). After exploring Westport, WA, Astoria, OR and now Ilwaco, WA for a few hours, we're ready to cross the Columbia River Bar yet again to cruise overnight into the Strait of Juan De Fuca. This trip into Sequim Bay, WA was approx. 42 hours since we lost some speed for many hours, but given the relatively GREAT sea conditions for the North Pacific we had an enjoyable ride. And although cruising at night isn't exactly "fun," we're itching to be right back out there now that we're back in our comfort zones. If you're thinking about cruising overnight but scared, DON'T BE! Do it, learn about what works for you, push yourself and come out the next morning a much stronger, smarter and more confident human being!!! Also, don't forget to stick around for Q&A at 19:52 Enjoy!
