When the Pender Harbour gathering wraps up, we are heading for Princess Louisa Inlet. We went there for the first time last year, it is so beautiful we just have to go again. Looking at the slack tides for Malibu Rapids, we have a couple of options.

(1) Leave Pender about 0800 to 0830 sunday morning and head straight for PLI to hit the 1351 slack at Malibu.

(2) Leave Pender after lunch Sunday, a leisurely jaunt to Egmont for an over nighter and a pub supper. Monday depart Egmont to hit the 1439 slack at Malibu.

I prefer option #2 as I am not a fan of rushing anywhere on a tight schedule. What say the pub?

For those of you who are on a tight schedule but have deep pockets, my offer still stands, trailer your boat to Comox, leave your rig at my house. We then have less than a 2 hr run to Pender. This would give you more time in Desolation and the Discovery Islands for those of you heading north.

Martin.

I visited Dave at Fishermans Marina Resort yesterday. He is in the process of rebuilding some of his docks which will be completed well before our gathering.

There is limited boat trailer parking and a launch ramp at Fisherman's. If the trailer parking is full arrangements can be made for storage at the Petro Canada station which has a secure storage lot.

If anyone wants to trailer their boat up, the route is through Vancouver to the ferry at Horseshoe Bay. Take the ferry to Langdale and then follow the highway through Gibsons, Sechelt and past Maderia Park till you see Garden Bay road, at the Petro Canada station. Turn left and follow Garden Bay road all the way around the lagoon and past John Henry's store into Fisherman's.

The ferry ride is about 45 minutes and you only pay one way. The return trip is free. The drive from Langdale to Garden Bay is between an hour and a quarter and an hour and a half.

There is also an option to put in at Sunset Marina in West Vancouver and leave your rig there. This avoids the ferry cost. I would contact them first to make arrangements.

For anyone boating up, the crossing from Nanaimo through Whiskey Gulf is about 30 nm. It usually takes us about 90 minutes. For those of you who were at the gathering in Comox Pender Harbour is 20 nm closer to Nanaimo than Comox.

The Garden Bay Pub just sold in March but it will be open so we can plan on eating there on Friday night for anyone who is interested. There is also the Painted Boat Restaurant, which is higher end and is a short boat ride away.

There are kayaks for rent at Fisherman's and also kayaks for rent at the pub dock.

Please give Fisherman's a call at 604-883-2336 to secure your spot at the marina.

We'll be launching at Blaine and cruising up to Pender Harbour over two days (maybe to Newcastle Island first and then to Comox to cruise over to Pender Harbour with Martin and Andrea?), and maybe doing PLI on the way back down, we shall see! Looking forward to this one a LOT!

We really like Smuggler's Cove, that is a good overnight spot before or after doing PLI, plus we like Ian Tyson's song Smuggler's Cove! A lifelong addiction to Ian and Sylvia and then Ian Tyson! If you hear their music across the waters, you know we are anchored nearby!

Pat, Thanks for the link to Ian's song. I just spent an hour listening to him and Sylvia. Been a long time, but they were favorites back then. Good music, shared from good friends. Thank you.

Oh, and Pender........ still holding my breath.

Hi Larry,
Go to the top of the home page and click on EVENT SIGNUPS. It comes up (by default) Friday Harbor. Click on the tab and open up the drop down box. Click on Pender and then click on Discussion. You can then sign up.
