Alucia

Machinbird;

Thanks for the alternative link. AIS positions were being received intermittently while the vessel was anchored in Freshwater Bay, and that was probably to do with terrain shadowing.

She got underway at 13/0300z and crossed to the northern side of the Juan De Fuca Strait to get into the outbound traffic lane. Is now proceeding west at 10.5KTS

Edit :: WX prognosis is not good - SW 10/15KT becoming S 20/30KTS. Mod to heavy W swell, and by Monday (PST) the wind will be S 30/40KT.
