Hey Vitger, hit me up anytime if you have any questions on places to go, places to stay around the San Juans....I've been going there for years as a commercial diver but I'm really getting to know it now as a cruiser as well. I can make some good suggestions if you'd like. Let me know how many days you plan to spend up there and what you want to see (I'm feeling like a bit of an expert about the area but still have tons to learn as well I'm sure).

I'm calling photo violation. The angle on those shrouds ID them as a Macintosh, not a Macgregor.

Diver 70,
When were you at the Benjamins? We were there in July with the Trailer Sailors!
The North Channel is fantastic!! I've never spent a better week on a boat.
I did see a 26M in Gore Bay Marina.

Yeah baby, were you up by Turn Point light house or down around Lime Kiln Park?
I have to say "been there done that" I have video where you can hear them breathing. It is truly a spectacular sight, a life event if you ask me.

Tim, we were just about a mile past Hanbury point heading south from Roche Harbor. Yeah, we hear the spray and actually got hit by some of the mist. What a cool experience.

At Canyon Lake, Arizona in September, swam to the shore to snap this, removed the rigging for summer motoring in the 100+

degree heat.
