The wind was strange. David and I kept remarking that the water looked like it was definitely 12+ but that the wind in our face while parked felt much less.
I'm tellin ya. That water is just weird.
Whats even weirder is that you'll come across 3' deep sandbars in the middle of the bloody mile-wide river.
Fun times when you have a 7'3" keel.
I can't remember where on the river Don Lee is, whether its inland of the Ferries or not, but once you get past Cherry point the water calms quite a bit, outside that point, and the water from the sound piles up in there.
