Hi everyone,
Well we made it home. Like most cruisers will admit, the worst thing about a cruise is that they end! Leviathan played around in Seward for about three weeks carrying family and friends on tours of Resurrection bay with whales, and other sea mammals to watch, as well as some fair fishing. When I say fair, I compare those experiences to Gore point! Hot! Tom, Izak, and Josh, the Washington to Seward crew had to get back to their land lives and I got two other old salts to help me bring Leviathan around Gore point to Homer. Rick and Vance, two old friends with extensive commercial fishing backgrounds helped on the last leg of the epic voyage. They, like the others, made it very easy. The weather from Cape Suckling to Gore point is more often bad than it is good. And the Kennedy entrance can be dangerous with its currents and tidal rips. We threaded the eye of the needle and I know we were lucky because I've been in these waters when I was younger and had the hell scared out of me! On our way from Seward to Homer we spent the night on the hook in Nuka passage. The following day we made it to the fun little town of Seldovia. We did stop along the way to fish, and found a spot about half a mile off the west side of Gore point where as soon as you dropped a line a fish hit. Gore point is not a destination I would go to without the likes of the men who helped get Leviathan to Homer, Alaska. Thank you Tom, Izak, Josh, Rick, and Vance. Sincerely Stan
