Hunters and Gatherers



New Eddystone Rock



Shoalwater Pass Anchorage

 

Left Ketchikan with our friends aboard “Got d’ Fever” and cruised up the east arm of Behm Canal, stopping to view “New Eddystone Rock,” a 230-foot castle-like landmark jetting up in the middle of the canal.  We then motored to nearby “Shoalwater Pass Anchorage” located behind Winstanley Island for a night’s stay.  Leonard and Bruce took the dinghy and deployed a crab trap and a prawn trap, while Pam and I kayaked around the lovely bay enjoying the peaceful setting.  A well maintained Forest Service Cabin along the shore added to the picturesque bay.  We all met back at the boat and the guys proudly returned with prawns and over a dozen large crabs, a job well done!  The reward for cooking cleaning, and preparing the crab - tasty crab sandwiches for lunch and crab cakes the following day with a tossed green salad topped with spiced prawns.  Pam and I agreed that we wouldn’t starve with good hunters and gatherers on board.
