Pure and Wild is really the only boat that is somewhat reasonable to take off shore in the North Pacific but with only 3 crew and a pretty lame looking paddle wheel on the back, they aren’t going anywhere fast if the wind shuts off. Could make the stretch after Bella Bella pretty slow for them. Time will tell!

Is just three crew on a 44’ boat kind of thin, even if they are betting on enough wind to not have to rely on muscle power? Any insight on why Pure chose that crew size?
I’ll “favorite” Kootenay now too, thanks for telling me about your friend.
