Hardy Bay, Port Hardy, Mount Waddington, BC, Canada
Jul 18, 2025 - Jul 18, 2025
We’ve been sat in Port Hardy for a couple of days now, and today was the first opportunity we had to safely take out our friends and give them a taster of what it’s like to sail! We just jived and tacked our way around the bay for a couple of hours with a double reefed main and reefed Genoa. Finn & Caitie we’re stuck straight in, helping manually bring up the anchor, getting a feel for what it’s like to be at the helm and helping with tightening those sheets! Big kudos to them as it was their first ever time- they nailed it! Then back to anchor outside Seagate Pier, and a dinghy back to land for a coffee before departing our ways! Hopefully we can see them again on the coast to give them another day out and to catch up!
