North Sound Day Cruise
Skipper: Scott Karren
Guests: Susan Karren, Tom Karren, Rob Karren, Dick Myers, Tamra Myers
Weather: Fog in AM, Clearing in afternoon, 60s
Seas: Calm to 1'
Engine Hours: 54.0-60.0
Destination: Whidbey Island, Mukilteo, Poulsbo, Seattle
Cruised north in light fog to the bottom of Whidbey Island where we had a picnic and watched the seals. Then continued down to Edmonds where we dropped Tamara off. Continued on to Poulsbo via Agate Pass. We grabbed a slip for a few minutes at Poulsbo and walked around the waterfront. Continued south from Poulsbo to Seattle through Rich Passage.
Tom suggested dinner in Seattle. Not remembering if Salty's had a dock, we cruised to West Seattle to check it out. No luck. On to Bell Harbor Marina where we docked and walked down the waterfront to Red Robin (We let the kids pick the venue for the evening).
After dinner, we had our first night cruise in Quay Cat. Fog was starting to come in from the south, but stayed clear between Seattle and Kingston. Time from Bell Town to Seattle was 55 minutes.
Fueled up at Poulsbo. Engine hours was 56.7; 10.1 hours from last fueling on 9/20. Put in 44.6 hours for 4.46 gallons per hour. Guess Bill and I used a little more fuel cruising at 5000 RPM last week. Price was $2.50 a gallon at Poulsbo. I am sure glad we fill up on shore most of the time. That usually saves an additional $0.50 to $0.75 a gallon.
Maintenance Issues: None
