Wrangell Narrows floods from the north and south. Currents
run swiftly, but not dangerously. Timing the trip to reach the midpoint at high
water slack is ideal, since it maximizes boost from the current. We left St.
John Harbor around 11:00 a.m. and enjoyed a good boost most of the day.
Petersburg is one of the most scenic towns in SE Alaska. We
arrived on a sunny day, and the snow capped, glacier studded mountains were
spectacular.
Mark and I got adjoining slips in the north harbor, which
was recently renovated. The new docks are excellent, with lots of power and
water.
Back in town…time to catch up on work.
