Move Over

August 9

  We are heading into Port McNeil Harbor for the night.  We are motoring along minding our own business when -HOOOONNNKKK!  Something right behind us honked at us and it sounded like a freight train, it's not a freight train just a HUGE cruise ship about ready to mow us over.  The radio had gotten turned to a different station, so the ship wasn't able to radio us and so we got the big honk.  We quickly moved out of their way, but we did notice as we slipped behind them that the ship was leaning to the port side.  We think it was all of the cruisers hanging over the rails watching the drama unfold in front of them! Luckily, we out maneuvered them and rode the huge wake into the harbor.  For Mike's late birthday present I am considering getting rearview mirrors for the boat.
