Weather: Sunny and warm. Winds: Light and variable. Seas: <1ft.
Motored out of Roche around 0745, using the northeastern entrance for the first time. Lots of sea grass and we coasted over a couple spots to avoid entanglement. Slow going in the Speiden Channel with opposing currents. Once in the San Juan Channel, speed picked up. Once across, chose to go to the south side of Crane Island, avoiding the currents on the north side. Pretty much the standard route to and through Thatcher Pass, across the Rosario to the fuel dock at Skyline.
Strider was folded for the first time in a month while on the fuel dock. Took precautions since we did not know how the new backstays were going to handle it. No problems! Refueled and cracked a beer at noon in our home slip.
