Ruth & Joe - since we have the whole U dock, I assume we just show up and do not need an individual reservation, correct?

Correct. No need to call in for reservations for the dates of July 14-16. Just show up  I told B'Ham to expect anywhere from ten to twenty-five boats. If there's more than what fits the dock, we can raft or they'll place the extras somewhere else.
The fee envelopes for moorage are located just north of the boat launch. I will also pick up some extra envelopes to hand out at U dock. Credit cards are accepted for moorage but that is done ONLY at port office located in Marina Square.
It is my understanding that this marina does not have a web site yet that shows their dock layout. I have been given brochures that show all of Squalicum Harbor and parking, etc. If anyone is in need of a brochure please send me a PM with your mailing address and I will mail one to you.
We checked out the BaySide Cafe for breakfast Saturday and/or Sunday morning and there's plenty of room for ALL the Brats. This restaurant is located just north of the boat launch and opens at 8AM. Anthony's is nearby and an excellent choice for a Friday night dinner.

(Oldgrowth): Yes, Indeed these maps do help! I guess that the lady at the port office doesn't know that this information is available on-line. I know I didn't. Thank you.
(TyBoo): And many thanks Mike for setting us up with a sign-up sheet. Looking forward to seeing you and your family. There's a little marine life center near the boat launch that the girls might enjoy. The lady (Sandra) that runs it also has a C-Dory and uses her boat to collect the sea life for the aquarium.
Many thanks,
Ruth and Joe

Yes, we'll be staying at Squalicum Harbor/Port of Bellingham at Dock U (Use the east entrance to the harbor).
Gate #12 for those arriving without a boat.
Gate #10 off of Bellwether Way to use the boat launch and truck/trailer parking. Additional overflow parking across the street to the south (gravel lot).
To the TyBoo crew: We're so happy that you're coming up to our neck of the woods. Looking forward to a good visit.
Ruth and Joe

I like this "old growth" guy. He is right up there with TyBoo with his tricks and special features.

| Talking to a guy at work today who keeps his boat up there somewhere. He says the entrance to Bellingham is shallow and hard to run when windy. Of course, he has a big old trawler. Are there any tricks to know? |

It does get windy out there in the main channel but after that trip from Sequim in October, B'Ham is a dream. The east entrance is a bit narrow and shallow but I (Ruth here) just keep an eye on the depth and stay to the middle of the channel while Joe does the fenders and the lines. Haven't knocked him off the boat (yet  ). Lots of big deep-draft boats moored inside the east entrance (Joe says). No problem.

You're just not tryin' Ruth! A quick application of the throttle and perhaps a hard turn to port.......

Ruth & Joe,
Caryn and I would love to join you folks in Bellingham. Thanks for setting this up. How's the run up from Twin Bridges to Bellingham? We've never done it before but it sounds like fun. |

Hey C-Dancer, When you come out of the Swinomish Channel just head upthe east side of Guemes and it is almost a straight line up to Bellingham. Takes about an hour at 14 mph. (I'll join up with you as you go past if you honk a couple of times) This is assuming I am back from the month trip up to Ketchikan and Kate will let me go that soon after returning. Should have some stories to tell.

| Patty here. Here's a radical thought, David. KATE COULD COME WITH YOU!!! Short ride, on a dock, lots of socializing to take advantage of if desired. |

If I don't end up in a slave labor camp in Ketchikan all summer, we'll be there, otherwise, maybe David will buy me a beer
