Ha Ha. Thanks Colby. I can always count on you to keep me straight! I am not too good at counting and if the numbers get too high, I will have to take off my shoes. I forgot you and Colleen and myself. Hopefully, Rosanne can make the trip. OK, it is 10.

Well, JoLee hasn’t regressed & she is actually doing much better, than we even hoped for, but our plans are changing with the Friday Harbor Gathering & the later cruise to Princess Louise Inlet cruise, now very likely for both of us to attend. Following PLI, we may continue on to Prince Rupert, but if that happens it will likely be a somewhat fast cruise to Prince Rupert & then back to Port Townsend, which is where, we originally plan to launch. This faster then perhaps desired trip is due to us needing to be back to Cokeville, Wy by early June, where we will meet my son Clayton & family to travel together, they in their jeep & RV trailer & us with truck camper & HunkyDory on a road trip to Skagway, Alaska. There we hope to do some short cruises & along the long road up & back, cruise & camp by some lakes in the Yukon & along the way, including our favorite lake, “Atlin”.
Warm spring Bay on Baranof Island with launching again out of Skagway, is now high on the hopeful list for next year.

You recall correctly! Thanks! I just delete them anymore regardless of which side they are on. The little snippets inside of otherwise helpful posts are troublesome for me because I do not like editing someone's words so from now on the whole post goes away.
There are a few C-Dory groups on Facebook and that site seems to be popular for political discussions.

The trash has been taken out, warnings sent.
Behave yourselves, friends. Hatred and disrespect for others has no place here at the C-Brats. If you disagree, find yourself another playground.

We have a nice size group planning to go to Princess Louisa Inlet with room for more. Final plans will be made at the Friday Harbor gathering prior to the potluck on Saturday. At that time, I see us breaking into smaller planning groups for those who have a different idea on travel speed, locations for provisions and fuel, Canada check-in etc. On Saturday's meeting, contact information can and should be shared with everyone planning to go to PLI. This will enable us to have a better idea of everyone's approximate location of travel as long as there is cell phone reception. To exchange MMSI numbers would also be helpful.
Colleen and I are not the leaders on this trip but we enjoy helping to facilitate a safe travel there. After the Saturday potluck, Colleen and I will consider ourselves to be 'on vacation' from the FH gathering and look forward to heading out early the following morning for PLI. With Nexus Marine check-in arrangements made on Sunday, we will tie up to the Bedwell Harbor dock only to place our courtesy flag on the bow and then continue north. Bedwell Harbor opens at 8 am and we have seen a line of boats and captains checking in at that time.
Do you plan to check in at Bedwell Harbour or Nanaimo, provision and fuel at Ganges, Nanaimo or even Pender Harbor? Will you cross the Strait on Sunday or Monday, taking into consideration the weather and ocean conditions? https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=46146 Make your own personal plans now as if you are a leader of a small group. With a group this size, there will be different ideas and plans but with a common purpose.
If interested in joining the group, send Colleen and I a PM and we will mark you down on the list to be handed out at the Friday Harbor gathering. We look forward to our final planning meeting and seeing everyone on the dock at Chatterbox Falls. Gary and Colleen |

Well it looks like Susan and I will be tagging along on the PL cruise. We have not been there since 06?? And that was in the 22. Anyone interested in hiking from egmont to the standing wave at Skookumchuck narrows. Its a very cool sight to see.

Thanks for the invite Tom. We have been to Egmont but not the standing wave at Skookumchuck narrows. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skookumchuck_Narrows
We may be interested. We will need to consider the weather just prior to heading up north after the C-Brats Friday Harbor Get-Together in May. You and Susan are now the 14th C-Brats boat planning to do the Princess Louisa Inlet/Chatterbox Falls trip. Hope Colleen and I can do this as it is on the way.  |

I just received the spring newsletter email with some good information and photos from The Princess Louisa Society. Is there a good way that I can post this email to this Forum so everyone can see the email?

Change the email to a PDF format, nad post in the "Documents" forum. You also could put it in a dropbox, and link to that.
Someone may have better ideas than us old folks.

| Thank you Patrick for starting this thread back in April of 2024. So glad that many of the C-Brats were able to make it to Princess Louisa Inlet in Canada this year after the 2025 Friday Harbor Get-Together. We had 7 boats on the dock at Chatterbox Falls. On Sunday, Jay and JoLee on Hunky Dory along with Dennis and David on My Iggy made it to the dock in one day with 135 NM of travel from Friday Harbor. The other 5 boats that made it to the dock the following day were: Chris and Cathy on CC Rider, Steve and Jodi on C-Time, Karl and Nancy on Nowhere Fast, Rick and Kerry on TomCat and Colleen and I on DayBreak. Sunny and nice weather for our stay. We enjoyed each others company and the breathtaking scenery that PLI affords. Colleen and I plan to do this trip again next year following the Friday Harbor gathering. Thanks to all who attended and made this trip fun and memorable. Gary and Colleen |
