There are many
remote communities along the coast, specifically from midlle
Vancouver Island north. The
weather can be pretty bad in
winter though. Usually not too cold (above or around freezing) but gray, rainy and windy. Many places are wuite protected as there are just thousands of island.
Single handing is doable, as long as you have a very good
weather forcast.
You will be sailing very little as you usually get nosely
wind. Every turn you take around and island or headland and the
wind is still on the nose. You can always turn around and go the other way.
Look up Tuva and Pierre at Echo Bay in the Broughtons. They have been living up there for many years and can porbably give you information as to the work options. The are usually at the
Vancouver and
Seattle boat show in January and February too with a booth.
Many indian reservations up there too.
Once you get past Cape Caution north it gets really
remote with some indian settlements such as Bella Bella and Bella Coola and almost nothing else in between.
The wild life is just breath taking. In a
single day you will see more
animals in
water, on land and in the air, than in a whole year in the
Caribbean (in our experience).
