May 15, 2021 – Private sail from Friday Harbor and over to Orcas Island via Upright Channel to pick up the rest of our passengers after they missed their ferry. Beautiful sail through the Wasp Islands and up to the top of Jones Island to take in the views and scan for blows. Returned to Orcas for ferry drop off via Pole Pass and back through the Wasp Islands to head for home.
