Airship | Basket Bay and the Marble Grotto

Airship at anchor in Basket Bay © Craig Morris

We woke in Pavlof Harbor to very little wind and mostly flat water. What a difference a day can make! We pulled our anchor and left around 10am for our not very long 14nm cruise down to Basket Bay. We arrived right near low tide, and anchored in the north corner of Basket Bay in about 85 feet, set out a couple crab pots, and then dinghied over to the mouth of the river to take a look.

Kevin and Craig went out to fish a bit while we waited for a higher tide.

This is looking from our anchorage out to Chatham Strait, and you can see why this is a fair-conditions-only anchorage. Not much protection at all.
