In September, most of the ships that had visited Nootka Sound left, including "Columbia Rediviva", under Gray, along with the sloop "Adventure". Bodega also left, on "Activa". Bodega and Gray met shortly after leaving and agreed to sail to Neah Bay where, in the last week of September, Bodega purchased "Adventure" from Gray. After this, Gray took the "Columbia" across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Port San Juan (today the site of Port Renfrew, British Columbia), where the final preparations were made for the long voyage across the Pacific. Gray left North America on October 3, 1792, arriving in the Hawaiian Islands on October 29, and in Macau on December 8.
