Weather: Sunny and warm. Winds: NW@8kts and dropping. Seas: Flat
Motored out of Secret Cove around 0900. Once out, attempted to sail using screacher and main. Initially made 5.2-6kts but once south of Trial Bay, approaching White Islets, winds and speed dropped below 4.2kts. Since we needed to get to False Creek, dropped the sails and motored. 3000rpm gave us 6.5kts.
Winds picked up a bit in Burrard Inlet and we did a little sailing, maneuvering between the freighters and those out for a Sunday sail. Watched a race and was impressed by a couple F18 cats zooming across the water.
Motored into False Creek and found Freestyle anchored fairly deep inside, vicinity of Stamp's Landing. Rafting was uneventful and we were secured at 1630.
