Re: [Paddlewise] Possible double-fatality: Nootka Island

Hello all

I am going north of there tomorrow so I have been watching the weather up
there.  There were fully developed storm winds there three days ago.  There
are not a lot of places in that area to put in if they were paddling the
outside of Nootka Island.  A gale was predicted, quickly upgraded to a storm
just before the system arrived.
