Sunday, 11September2011: Gig Harbor to Kingston

Weather:  Sunny and mild.  Winds:  Finicky.  Seas:  <1ft.

Arrived back aboard to a warm refrigerator, no lights and dead house battery.  Apparently the Optima Yellow Top batteries could not cut it.  Fortunately, while there are two for a house battery, the third engine battery had been isolated and was fully functional.  Also, apparently, the solar panels were not functioning very well either.

Took advantage of winds when they were available and ended up sailing up 90% of the Colvos!  Else, it was pretty much a motor trudge.  Found a great ice cream shop called Mora up the street in Kingston.  Turns out they have a second store in Poulsbo....
