Feb 11th - Discovery (#13)

Dan, Dennis and I went for a morning paddle out to Chatham and Discovery Islands. The current was running a strong ebb and Dan and I had a "roller coaster ride through it on the way out. The prediction was for close to 6 knots at Race rocks... We made it over to Vantreight, went and played in the sluice, only to find the current was to strong to paddle up through!. We went around the other side of Vantreight only to find the same thing so we decided to portage across a corner of Vantreight!
By the time we came home the current had waned and we had a steady trip back.
