Dungeness Bay. 48 08.745N, 123 05.487W.

Porpoises and Harbor Seals greet us. The seals are fascinating, splashing around to get other's attention. But not getting close enough for good pictures :-(.

Kind of a rolly night, with winds pushing the boat one way and waves the other. We'll have to start setting a stern anchor out. Great name for a place to be without a crab trap :-(. So Doug improvises one out of our fish net, a couple of lead weights, a rubber band, and a can of cat food (see picture). And it works! We catch 4, one of which is legal to keep. We have that one for lunch. Then we hoist the hook and motor over to Port Townsend for parts and more repair. The dingy seems to be riding funny, low in the stern no matter how far back we position it. Need to check in to.
