Weather: Sunny and warm. Winds: Light and variable. Seas: Flat.
Awaited the tide and got a great push through the Tacoma Narrows. First trip under the bridge! Since Hale Passage has a low bridge, was forced around the south end of Fox Island. There were a lot of crab traps in the area, surprising since it was a non-crabbing day.
Slow motor up Carr Inlet to Kopachuck State Park. This area of Carr Inlet reminded me of a large lake, a lot of waterfront homes, along with many speed boats, that is, ski boats and 30ft-ish fast power boats. In the afternoon, these boats were pulling skiers and tubes. Many showed up to use the mooring buoys for the few hours after work and before sunset.
Arrived around 1400 and found a lot of buoys occupied, but several available. Once moored, we found the water temp was around 68F! Towards evening, all the boats departed, leaving us alone in the anchorage.
