Good to see you again. Well, this video was cold and gloomy for a while, especially the stop at 9:34 that looked like a setting from a horror movie? No children this video, I guess they are huddled below. But toward the end the fog lifts enough that you captured some really nice imagery of mountains.
Yeah we have been quite busy up here and took a break from posting but were back at it again. Yeah this run wasn't much for scenery or excitement but we covered alot of ground. Yeah was a real wet/cold so kids were down in cabin staying warm (per our request) the morning we pulled anchor and left east inlet it was 33°F and although Gopro wouldn't pick it up we did see chunks of snow in the water floating by us. I good sign we were getting closer to Alaska! Haha
Well once the clouds burned off and exposed the snow on the mountain tops it revealed why it was so chilly (since cold air drops). TY for sharing the journey.. :)
Yeah the snow tells us were getting closer haha, the morning we were all bundled up it was 33°F so pretty chilly morning we've been in colder but generally hide down below with the stove. Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching!
We have 300' of 3/8" chain, the windless works great buts it's an old school manual windlass. Plenty of torque with gear ratio but slow for deep drops so we hand pull the rode laying in he floor to speed things up until we have to pull anchor out then we soley hand crank with windlass

wow, how many feet of chain is on your rode? what size chain does your winless eat? what's wrong with your winless?
