Cruising

We stopped at the Argo halibut hill at Five Fingers, but no luck this time. We did find room at the dock in Hobart Bay, Entrance Island.
6-12 We had quite a Dahl Porpoise show just south of Tracy Arm entrance. They just kept racing toward us as some got tired, others took up the game. Always a thrill to see them move effortlessly across our bow. Of course we are only traveling about 7 miles an hour, but it's still amazing to see.
Only one other boat at the dock at Taku Harbor and they moor at Anchor Cove, our marina in Anacortes! We had not met them before though. The dock was pretty well filled up overnight. It is scheduled for complete renovation in a few days and will not be available for some time.
6-13 Auke Bay, north of Juneau, actually had room at their all-transient docks. In fact we docked at one spot, but had to move to another in order to get power. When we called the harbor office, she immediately told us that we had two big boxes waiting for us. This was our old computer that Teri had sent to replace our crashed one that we had sent to her. After we set up the computer, we found that it wouldn't even recognize our navigation CD, so we still didn't have a backup. Nobeltec has discontinued that version, so they were unable to send us another disk...unless we sent them $350 for an upgrade.
