The Adventuress on her crossing from Port Townsend after passing the Coast Guard inspection. The photo was taken from the Victoria Express on my way to hook up with her.

One of several attempts to set the anchor Wednesday evening in pretty high winds.

The Lady Washington, anchored nearby, with a good indication of the wind that night.

The Zodiac on Thursday morning. Almost all of the ships anchored out, put their sails up that morning for the Parade of Sail into the inner harbor, but before entering, took them down again because the wind was just a little too much.

Another tall ship on a morning sail. It may be the Canadian ship Oriole.
