Sailing to Ketchikan | Ep. 8 | Lots of Whales, Clearing Customs, and Heading into the Wild!

In this one, we cruise from Foggy Bay and head through Ketchikan to clear USA customs and stock up on food for several weeks away from any town. As we head into Clarence Strait, a group of humpback whales escort us, putting on some great bubble net feeding displays.

This episode wraps up in Ratz Harbor as the sunshine sets in.
