Jim Carr's Story and Mekoryuk Voyage Update
July 30 still underway headed for Mekoryuk on Nunivak Island. The sea is calm and the sun is shining. The deepest water between here and Mekoryuk or any place in the Bering Sea is not over 50 fathoms. July 1 Arrived at Mekoryuk early morning but could not ashore due to rough weather. This has been the worst day weather wise. We moved behind a spit of land this afternoon to help, but not enough to ashore. Aug. 1 Up early this morning as weather continues.
