A rainy day in Juneau. Static on audio VHF is rather annoying.

Sorry to see rain in Juneau since the week has been so nice. I agree about the radio static.

Infinity now in Gastineau Channel at Marmion Island with ZADM about to follow from Stephens Passage

Infinity within view. Cam operator has cleaned the lens :)

Yucky looking day.

Enjoy the sail in. I will see you all for the sail-away.

(Mooring) Line gun going off

I should finally be here to watch her coming in. Doesn't look like a very nice day.

Looks to me like Infinity is listing to set the gangway. Fortunately an uneventful docking. Zaandam should be close behind.

Yowzer! That snuck in!

Fork lift at the ready.

Fwd spring line (the blue one under the dive board) visible as is the fwd mooring deck officer on the board

Almost missed it - once again good camera work, Peter. Thanks.

That breast line being heaved in to its bollard by the linesmen looked like a snake going for its prey ;)

I missed the sail in :( but got a little "zoom-time" :). It looked like that person on the bow was doing his early-morning exercises!

Today's last ship in the Gastineau Channel. For once a HAL sailaway will come at a time I can manage.

Norwegian Sun coming in to view.

Looks like the weather has improved since early morning rains with some blue sky.

You and Copper beat me to it - was that a female voice?

I see a line going up - where is our web cam operator for a close up?
