From the interior of BC

Wow, What a beautiful boat! Was in the Campbell River area this summer and loved the scenery. Live in Quesnel BC and looking forward to getting onto some boats and learning the ropes this coming summer. Great pictures!

I have seen this boat a couple of times this summer - just last week in Montague Harbour.

If you are looking for lessons, there is no better place to learn.

Thanks for the photos…. they brought back many great memories of cruising in “god’s country”, where wooden boats are best suited for those chilly waters.

Do you do “Cruise and Learns”?

Most of my clients are from Alberta. 75 minutes from Sidney and Comox.

I am headed for Nanaimo tomorrow for 2 weeks: a CYA advanced course and a CYA Intermediate course.

Cruise and learn

I was thinking of doing a cruise and learn to get some certfication at Christmas time. Was looking at some sights in California as that is a little warmer than BC during Christmas break! ;-)

Can you leave me some contact info so I can contact you for rates and times when you do courses?

Thanks,

Canoeguy
