-With the strong south winds and the State parks closed on the Saratoga passage side of Camano, I opted for a downwind paddle on the Port Susan side of the island this morning. ​ Jill dropped me at Tyee Beach and picked me up at Cavalero boat ramp. 
- 
-The tide was dumping out, and ohh boy the current was strong, stacking up against the wind waves, and must I say Gorge like! The Port Susan Bay has a large round top portion and narrows considerably down to the south which increases the flow velocity as it constricts. ​ A couple sections, especially as I approached points the current was ripping around, really reminded me of Swell City and the Hatchery! 
- 
-I'm going again tomorrow, this time on an OC1 as it was a bit sketchy running it alone on the ski!
