We crossed Mudge Bay into Clapperton Channel; cruised counter-clockwise around Clapperton Island to Croker Island; passed between Secretary and “Sow and Pigs” into the lovely remote Croker Island Harbor around 9:45am. This harbor equals the raw beauty of our favorite anchorage Covered Portage, near Killarney. The overnight boats departed by 11:15. New boats arrived by noon. We dinghied over to South Benjamin and peeked into private “one-boat tuck-ins”...sweet! Back at Croker, we climbed 100 feet up to the top of the smooth ledges just behind Summertime, enjoying the stunning vistas in all directions. Discovered a tiny statue of King Neptune near the waters’ edge. “Ever Hopeful”, a lone visiting duck, got lots of loving words but no hand-outs as she paddled from boat to boat. Swimming off our swim platform in clear, comfortable water made the experience just about perfect.
