February 9th - Discovery island (#10)

Dan, Paulo and I went for a morning paddle around our favourite islands. Conditions were very nice with a fairly good ebb to begin with. You can see from the speed plot that I had to work hard to get past Strongtide Islet and had a good push from Alpha Islet to Seabird point. We stopped for a break in Rudlin Bay and enjoyed the sun. It could have been a summer's day! Looks like we did a nice straight line from Commodore Point back to the beach in Cadboro Bay! We saw many birds along the way as well as a pair of eagles sitting on Jemmy Jones islet. We were also tailed by a group of seals on our paddle back across Baynes Channel.
