Welcome aboard! I'll be passing by Vancouver on the way from Ketchikan to Anarcotes sometime around April 5 or so.

Welcome aboard!
Just to get it out of the way early, your anchor is too small, it's the wrong kind and you don't have enough chain.

Or is it too much chain? Either way it's definitely not the right amount.

I believe we passed by you heading to Ketchikan last July in BC waters, seems you were heading south. Welcome to the group. Incredible vessel.

Bob and Diane,

Welcome Aboard!

Funny that just last night I watched, for the second time, Dave Harlow's 45 minute video of the delivery of your Nordy from Xiamen to Vancouver. As an aside, I'm a bit of a foodie and enjoyed watching your chef prepare fish tacos made from a freshly caught Dorado (mahi mahi) and when Jim Leishman said they were the best he'd ever had I instantly wanted to ask your chef to share his recipe. Coincidentally, yesterday morning I was out fishing with friends here in Huatulco, Mexico and we caught several big Dorado. Can't wait to enjoy some great fish tacos tonight.

Again, Welcome Aboard!

P.s. Was your anchor chain purchased in China or did you purchase it in Canada and then have it shipped to China?
