The weather forecast for the next four days was much improved and we decided to leave shelter bay for Vancouver.Before weighing anchor at 0800hrs we had to remove a stowaway! A beautiful Seal pup was fast asleep in the saloon with a cushion under his head and flippers covering his eyes!! By nightfall we had past Punta Gorda and rounded Cape Mendocino. We are 25nm off the coast and will shortly be passing Crescent City.There is hardly any wind but we have a big Pacific Swell..
