I spoke to the Director of Operations at the SBS. They were trying to get some of the boat traffic to head down into the Hood Canal area. Looks like a nice spot, anyone been there? He said he would work with us on a group rate if some of the pod was interested in a stay.

Janet and Chris, that would be great if they would cut us a deal. I've always liked that place (really protected). In fact, about a year ago I was trying to get something together their, but the price for the stay turned me off. I can't remember exactly how much it was, but it seemed to be alot more than some of the other places.
If they would be reasonable, I'm game.

I've been there a couple of times. It's a really nice place. There first time I visited it was in the year 03 PCD (Pre-C-Dory). My wife and I stayed at houseboats for 2 (www.houseboats4two.com). This was in May on a shrimping weekend and the place was packed. We've since gone back (01 ACD) and really enjoyed the stay. Nice marina, very protected anchorage (you don't HAVE to pay for a slip) and good facilities (showers, BBQ's, pool) and a decent little store/cafe (they have Seabeck Pizza!). Moorage at the Marina is $20/25 winer/summer for boats 35' or less (including power). I don't see that as too pricey but I am overpaid...  .
There are other options nearby for boaters - the most obvious is the little known Pleasant Harbor State Park. It is "a Satellite Park to Dosewallips State Park and, as such, is a marine moorage facility only. It has 218 feet of moorage float space. Park facilities include a sewage pump-out station and a Port a-potty dump station. Facility use is first come, first served, with continuous moorage limited to three consecutive nights. The park is part of the Marine Parks and Boat Moorage system and fees are charged for moorage. Call (360) 753-5771 for a fee update as all fees are subject to change." Dosewallips and Triton Cove State Parks are also not too far away. There is a launch at Triton Cove. Seal Rock National Forest campground is also close. The beach there was awesome for oysters in May several years ago. One could anchor out there and get a campsite.
Fishing in the Hood canal is good for salmon late in the year but the fishing over the past few years has been very restricted due to low oxygen levels. Crabbing is excellent as is shrimping (during the extremely short season). IT would be a fun place to go.
