Forest bought the nice Fontaine Pajot Mahe 36 catamaran and was bringing the boat to Olympia. He has quite a good crew for the long first day from Anacortes to Shilshole Bay Marina in Seattle. I found One World's AIS signal on Marine Trafic only once, and texted a few times. I waited just North of the marina entrance and South of Golden Gardens Park. They arrived after the sun went down below the clouds, so I bumped up the ISO and got a few shots as they got closer. Note the sea-lion raft. Nice to see such a successful first adventure! Congratulations! Oh yeah, on the way home I saw the full moon, another good omen. . .
