October 28th We had a lovely visit in Larsen’s Bay. The town is very small. We walked the whole two-miles of town. We were told during summer seasons the Kodiak Lodge Resort is open, and we can only GUESS this is where visitors can get access to public or paid […]

October 26th The sun does not seem to rise above the mountains until late so we hibernate like bears. We wanted to take advantage of good morning weather (54 degrees) and move south before the predicted strong southerly winds were upon us. Today we woke up at the crack of […]
October 24th We missed the little window we had to move south to Larson’s Bay, so we decided to snuggle into East Arm. We were able to pull weather a few days ago and during our transit we heard there is a gale coming from the south in the next […]
October 23rd Howdy Ho everyone, Things have improved drastically for us. Our last noon report mentioned considerable troubles including a malfunctioning head that led a “poopy” of a day. Justin, if your reading this, it made us think of your “Sh*t-apocalypse of 2015″(this is as Justin calls his event), another […]
October 21st The outside temperature is freezing. Literally freezing! We do not run the heater at night, so in the morning the inside boat temperature is near the lower 40s. We run the generator to power central heat and a little portable heater to warm the room to a comfortable […]
October 20th The weather is predicted to be out of the northeast and south the next couple of days so we moved to a new anchorage. Our South Arm anchorage might not be the most comfortable during a northwest wind, which seems to be predominant in this area, so we […]
October 19th to 20th The temperature has finally dropped to a chilling 36 and 38 degrees. Yesterday, we went deer hunting aka hiking because we do not see any deer. The views are stunning with the mountain tops having a nice cover of snow. Last night just as we were […]
October 17th Yesterday we moved anchorages because the wind was turning from west to north then northeast and 30 knots. The Kodiak fjords can be a bit of a wind tunnel but moving to the north side of the bay protected us very well from wind and waves. We, or […]
October 16th More and more frequently when we wake in the morning we experience sinus pressure, sometimes stuffy noises, and sometimes even a small headache. We didn’t think anything of it and would continue about our day. During a discussion with one of the lovely St. Paul Marina office ladies, […]
Yes the wind is increasing, the temperature is dropping, and the rainy to sunny day ratio is 3 to 1, respectively. Today is a misty day but the weather forecast looks good, so we are off to cruise around Kodiak another month. Marj had a safe flight home and we […]
We post updates to our WordPress website and Facebook using a Jetpack plugin Post-By-Email feature. Yesterday as we arrived in Kodiak City we realized the plugin magically disconnected, so none of our post were reaching our website. Our apologies for flooding post from the last week. While in Seal Bay […]
