Was talking to a biosecurity employee at work today as they were taking samples from the bilge of a ship, apparently the levels of poo in the gulf from the floods aren't much below that of a septic tank!
Sailed Port Hughes today. Not the usual azure "desert island" quality you would expect, but about the same as metro waters on a clean day. If you are grossed out (like I am) with the water quality at metro, then the Spencer is a good backup plan
