Coho is gone to Seattle for his annual drydock. You can't readily get to Victoria from here until after February 9th. You'd have to drive to Port Townsend, ferry to Keystone, drive to Anacortes, ferry to Sidney, drive to Victoria. Nobody home at the ferry dock, except a big tall crane, doing something or other to Coho's berth while he's gone.
Lots of ships around the harbor. Gloria, home port Antigua Barbuda, just after picking up her pilot:
We also have Polar Explorer at the terminal getting serviced; she seems to have her bow weighted down and her stern elevated. Too far away for a photo, will try tomorrow. Ocean Star is still at anchor, as she has been since Sunday. And there are two modest-sized ships with wonderful names anchored out there: Campotex Resurrection and Mermaid Express.

That would be a new one, the ferry from Pt. Townsend to Kingston that you mention. How long do you think it would actually take, coordinating ferries so you could connect to the one trip a day Anacortes-Sydney (and assuming we're going Pt. Townsend-Keystone and not Pt.Townsend-Kingston)?
Right, meant Keystone. Had Kingston on my mind because I was earlier thinking about our other impending cut-off-from-the-world problem. When they close the Hood Canal Bridge for a couple of months, none of the ferries to Seattle will be reachable. Victoria will be the only place you CAN get here from.
