Beautiful sunny day, 5 knots or so of wind. Sailed a bit when we left the Copelands, had to motor to get to where we were going. Sarah and I got the sails back up wing on wing for half an hour or so in Pendrell Sound. Anchored at the head of the sound, lots of beautiful scenery.

Sailed and motored up into the head of Pendrell Sound. Anchored first try and stern-tied. Beautiful and peaceful anchorage. Warm water for swimming.
