Well, there is the boat ramp. This is a minus 1 foot tide. But the super slippery mud is much higher. You will need a tow truck with a winch to get back up if you use it at other than high tide.

This is the Little Hoquiam, which splits off of the Hoquiam a few miles up. Snag on port!

After solving the breakdown problem, the first place that I head is the Hoquiam River. These are the old dry docks where we roamed as kids.

Two miles from the launch, the motor dies and I have my first experience with Vessel Assist. A $154 lesson.
