Day 3 - Canadian Waters

A Close EncounterClose Encounter


The seas were angry that day (ok, it was pretty damn calm) as Nils came face to face with the great white boat. We seemed to have angered the beast, and a great bellow thundered from its maw as we passed across its bow. It idled in the water, taunting us to come closer - we were blocking the path to its lair. Another vessel appeared to starboard, barrelling down on us. Tension filled the air as our fearless captain charged forward, deftly navigating the treacherous water, steadied only by his wits and the promise of Mount Gay Rum when his watch ended.
