This morning we lifted up anchor to go over the sandbars and start our way south. It was a rainy and pretty windy day with southerly winds up to 30 kn and waves 10-15 ft.


As soon we arrived the channel the coast guard friendly reminded us on vhf that they closed the channel for passenger, fishing and recreational vessels. So we just took a look what we might got out there and turned around to find a close by anchorage.

Now we’re waiting for better weather, fired up the heater and hang out.

  1. Yes, the Columbia River bar is nothing to take lightly.

    Stay safe!
