    Alright, it's been brought to my attention by many of you that the savoury sausage delicacy presented in this video is actually available elsewhere in the world as well, and is called a "pig in a blanket" or a "toad in a hole", or some other loving name, depending on where in the world you are! I didn't know that they'd be available here in North America as well so now I must get my hands on some immediately! 😉 Personally I still like the name "sausage surprise" the best though. Nakkipiilo forever!
    Anyway, thanks for watching, and a commercial message follows... đŸ€“If you want to support the creation of these videos you can do so on Patreon. Wow, who would have thought?! The address is: www.patreon.com/alluringarctic . Patrons get access to a boat tracker, ad-free videos (whenever our Internet connection is good enough for me to upload twice), private WhatsApp chat group etc. And most of all, your penny goes a long way in helping me spend the long hours editing these đŸ’»đŸŽ„. Hope you enjoyed and have a great week!

    It’s always a pleasure to see another instalment from Alluring Arctic. Sailing the relatively calm Inside Passage of British Columbia can be a handful in the fall and winter with small craft warnings appearing almost daily. I have never experienced the wind phenomenon described, but it can be tricky at times dodging stray logs, and deadheads. All power to Alluring Arctic on their odyssey to follow in the footsteps of John Cabot, Henry Hudson, Sir Francis Drake, Captain James Cook, Sir John Franklin, and of coarse the first person to successfully sail the fabled Northwest Passage , the Norwegian Roald Amundsen. A literal who’s who of sailing explorers.

    As you go down the Alaska Peninsula through the Shelikof Strait, be ready for Williwas in excess of 100mph coming out of any of the bays you will cross. The winds over the Alaska peninsula can get nuts depending on barometric gradient between Bristol Bay and the Shelikof Strait. Have had more than one beautiful day go to H in a handbasket and from flat calm to well over 100mph in less than an hour. If you take the time to anchor in Kanatak Lagoon, visit the abandoned village of Kanatak at the head of the bay. The Lagoon is a great anchorage that I've rode out more than one storm. So great bays to wander into along that coastline if you have the time.
