Don’t Tell Mom started the day with a push to Bella Bella, pacing team Let’s Row Maybe by several hundred meters for 3 hours. Rather than succumb to the temptation of a stop at Bella Bella for something other than prepackaged camping food our team blew by the village docks and continued on for a 47 mile day.
Faced with increasing winds from the west, Leigh made a decision on the fly to cut inside on a new route more protected from the wind. Now camped on the south end of Roderick Island, this strategy seems to have paid off with a good pace and getting past Jackson Narrows at low tide, positioning themselves for favorable tides in the Princess Royal Channel tomorrow.
Great decision Leigh! Row on.
