After leaving Squirell Cove on April 13(it was Friday!) heading north up Calm Channel about 11:30 in the morning, we hit a log that went directly under the boat. As a result we ended up with the rudder being a little stiff. We decided to go to Campbell River to have the boat hauled out to assess the extent of the damage. The boatyard was busy so we waited at the marina until the following Wednesday. April 18. The rudder post was slightly bent so the yard ordered a new rudder assembly from Catalina in Florida with a four week delivery schedule. The Yard is busy so we waited until April 25 to be lifted back in the water. Luckily we could stay on the boat at the yard. We left Campbell river the next morning with plans to stay in Kanish Bay. The tide was in our favor through Seymore Narrows which made for a fast passage. We arrived at Kanish Bay at low water and went ashore to dig clams. Clam chowder!!
