Hello Folks, We're planning on cruising Desolation Sound August 5-12 and spending the following week in Nootka Sound. Wondering if there will be any other Brats in the vicinity of Desolation Sound around the same time. If so, please respond or send us a personal message if you're interested...

Thought I'd share my experience should someone find their BayStar steering not behaving properly. We were in the Broughton Islands last summer when the boat refused to turn to the left despite turning the wheel. We were almost 50 miles from the trailer and a third of the way through our...
