A few years ago when we had first acquired Wecantu we took her to a Westsail rendezvous in Port Townsend, Washington. These gatherings happen every year in various locations, and it is quite a sight to see all the beautiful Westsails lined up. This year we were not able to attend a rendezvous, but did the next best thing. In July we headed to Taku Harbor with Mark of SV Escape for our own mini-rendezvous. We had first spotted SV Escape a year ago while anchored in Taku, and ended up meeting Mark and his wife Patti a few days later when both our boats were docked at a Juneau marina. We quickly all became friends (including Wecantu and Escape). The sight of even just two Westsails together is enough to make me sigh in appreciation. Did I mention that I think they are beautiful boats?
For the second night of our mini rendezvous we headed to Tracy Arm and anchored in a little cove. There were quite a few icebergs around, more than last year.
By now SV Escape is probably getting ready to cozy up for winter in dry dock, but we look forward to seeing her and her crew again next summer!
