The first part from Quadra Island was easy and calm seas until  to about 1 1/2 hours out from traversing the Comox Bar when the wind and waves picked up.  Active steering to avoid burying the bow in a wave trough was needed until we crossed the Comox Bar.  

We saw a pod of orcas feeding on the way into Comox to refuel.  The wind was pretty strong at the fuel dock and we allowed it to blow us on the dock.  Getting off was another story.  I backed off and had to do several power turns in 2 arms of the marina to get where I could back out of the whole marina as I could not get the bow to turn into the wind.
