Wednesday, June 19 Blind Channel to Port Harvey Marina 41.5 miles 4 hours
Johnstone
Strait can be very rough with the right (or wrong) wind and tide. In
Johnstone Strait the wind went up to 31 mph and we had 1-2’ chop. Once
we passed Port Neville the wind died down and so did the waves. We
entered Havannah Chanel and then Port Harvey. There is quite a bit of
industry along the channel. Port Harvey Marina is all the way in.

This place is run by George and Gail Cambridge. They are a very
interesting couple and have lots of information about the goings on in
the Broughton’s. We were very sad to hear the Bill Barber, owner of
Lagoon Cove Marina, died of cancer in April. He will be sorely missed.
His bear stories are legend. His wife Jeanne is still there and we
will check it out in a week or so. We were sorry to hear that the
restaurant is not open due to some government involvement licensing
issues. However, George made us an awesome veggie pizza and delivered
it to the boat.
