Martin - That is so cool, but those places are so awesome that it doesn't surprise me. The tour of the oyster farm sounds pretty awesome too. I people who come to the Powell River CBGT from other areas will also get a chance to explore these areas either before or afterward.

You have me convinced. It should be great and if the weather is nice it will be like going to a completely different place. I think the clouds and rain made it look really cool. I think I may do an extended circle tour: Comox - Powell River - Jervis Inlet - Princess Louisa Inlet -...

This makes a lot of sense to me. I've never been and it seems like a good post CBGT cruise. Has anybody been to Chatterbox Falls? Is it worth the journey?

It would be nice to see a good turnout in Powell River and it really does have a lot to offer. Many boaters know Lund better than they know Powell River, but they really are very close to one another. Lund is the gateway to Desolation Sound and very close to Savory Island which is like the...

Mark The following sentence reads: "The only exception to this requirement is to report arrival. If it is necessary for someone to leave the boat to report arrival to CBP, he or she must return to the boat after reporting and remain on board unless instructed otherwise. No one who arrived on...

I've heard this is the event to attend, so I would like to come if I can work my schedule out. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good boat launch near the southern end of Vancouver Island, maybe around Duncan or Chemanius? I need a dock because I launch by myself.

If people are thinking about Princess Louisa after the gathering, the obvious starting point would be Egmont. Take the ferry to Langdale (Gibsons) and then drive to the end of the road. You would need to go between Texada Island and the mainland, but your truck and trailer would be waiting for...

The trip from Comox to Powell River is 20 nm so it will be less than 2 hours. The boat launch at Comox is good, it is double wide cement with a walkway down one side, BUT you really need to watch the tides as you do with all the boat launches around here. The Comox boat launch is one of the...

My cruising plans aren't decided yet, but the Powell River gathering appeals to me. It is a short hop over from Comox and a great start to a Princess Louisa cruise.

There is a dock at Salmon Point, it just isn't beside the ramp.

Salmon Point Resort has an adequate ramp, but it is quite steep, does not have a dock beside the ramp and you would want to select a mid tide or high tide, however it is very sheltered and it is a great starting off point. Pacific Playgrounds is in the same area, the ramp is also quite steep...
