We are still in Hoonah but we got notice today that we have permission to cruise in Glacier Bay National Park. We are so excited we had to post it. If you are interested in why we are so excited, you can go to the Glacier Bay website and watch the 15 minute boater's orientation video. Most people only get a glimpse of the bay as they do it in a a few hours but we have a whole week to check it out. Hope the weather holds! Right now it is looking a little lumpy for our arrival on Thursday and a little wind on Sunday but otherwise pretty good. Our friends had some issues with fog and we can't forecast that too easy, so hopefully it will stay clear. One of the problems with Glacier Bay is there are so many glaciers it does generate its own weather. Of course with all the glacier exploring we have been doing, we are kind of used to that but this is even more concentrated than anything we have yet been to.
Angie arrives in the morning so we will be doing a lot of touristy things with her tomorrow and then depart Thursday at about 05:00. Mark is taking his growler up to the local brewery which has one of his favorite beers on tap, Freeride APA,
About Me
- SY Sari Timur
- Alaska, United States
- I am owned by Pauline and Mark Blasky. My hull was built at the Duncan Marine Yard in Taiwan and launched in Dec of 1980. It is a William Garden design based on the Pixie Design and called by Duncan Marine a Freedom 45. They are the fourth owners and have owned me the longest. They have done extensive refitting to me including replacing my entire deck structure and rig. My masts are roughly 10% taller than original and now are made of aluminium as opposed to the original wood ones, which, though pretty, were always problematic.
