Airship Goes to Alaska 2016 We got up fairly early this morning at Echo Bay, chatted with Pierre a bit more while he showed us some of the work he'd done recently on the rental cabins. We pulled away around 7:30am, saying goodbye until September, when we stop on the way south…

Remember how we were the only boat anchored in Melanie Cove in Desolation Sound? By the time we went to bed there were 11 boats in there. Mid September when we’ve hardly seen another pleasure boat in weeks! Also, when we left the cove at around 8:30am or so, not…

We were looking forward to coming back to Port Harvey on our way back through The Broughtons. We had such a fun time here in May when we were on our way north with the Waggoner flotilla that we even joined the Port Harvey Yacht Club. Here we are flying…

Yesterday afternoon we met up with "Nearly Normal Norman" over at his Ocean Falls "museum" that he was kind enough to open it up for us to tour. Norman, giving us a little history of Ocean Falls: He even picked some wildflowers to gussy up the place: Norman's museum is…
