After a life altering week of solo sailing, my friend's Rachael and Ben join me for the next leg from Petersburg to Ketchikan, Alaska. The week starts out very wet, but we don't let the drizzle dampen our moods as we enjoy some sailing down the dredged channels of Wrangle Narrows.

In this one, I complete my solo journey from Juneau to Petersburg, Alaska.
I leave behind Windham Bay were I waited out a gale that never ended up coming. As I enter the strait, I am greeted by good sailing on choppy seas. For a change, the wind angle arches in my favour and brings me into Clevela...

Welcome to part 4 of my 5 part series of Sailing The Inside Passage to Alaska on a Catalina 27!
In this part, we get chased out of Reid Inlet in Glacier Bay by a sudden localized gale, and sail through the night to Blue Mouse Cove. We continue to Juneau, then turn south to begin the journey home. ...
Welcome to part 3 of my 4 part series of Sailing The Inside Passage to Alaska on a Catalina 27!
In this part, we continue north from Petersburg to Glacier Bay AK. Lots of northwest wind had us tacking pretty much all the way north, with a few pretty tough days with near gales. Glacier Bay did not ...
11 years ago, we sailed the Inside Passage aboard a very bare boned Catalina 27 from Port Hardy, all the way up to Juneau and back. I posted a video of this trip in the past, but decided to re-edit it to improve the audio and flow with the (relatively) retro footage I captured.

How do we keep warm aboard in the Winter? We try to be in port and hooked up to shore power when the weather turns really cold. Our Origo Heat Pal denatured alcohol space heater does a fine job in early Spring and Fall, but more is needed during the cold months of Winter in Southeast Alaska.

Walking in Petersburg, Alaska, felt a bit like being home in Sweden. There’s so much Nordic influence! Scandinavian boat names, Nordic flags and a viking ship! We plan well before setting off again because we are going through Wrangell Narrows, a narrow channel where two currents meet and we’re goin...
