After an extended road trip from Texas, we finally arrived in Oak Harbor, Whidbey Island.
It was great to see the boat again and to visit with our friends, Doug and Lori, who live there.

We had decided to launch the boat at Cornet Bay Marine Park near Deception Pass because the ramp is pretty deep there.
We have a Washington marine park pass so we were able to use the dock space until we were ready to leave.
We spent over a week getting the boat rigged and provisioned.

Opening Day for the crabbing season was on July 1 and we got our limit in Dungeness Crab.
