I used to run trips with Northwest Outdoor Center (http://www.nwoc.com)
and think they do a great job.

There is also:
Outdoor Odysseys - http://www.outdoorodysseys.com/
Shearwater - http://www.shearwater.com/
Alder Creek - http://www.aldercreek.com/ (I think they come up from
Portland)
Outdoor Adventures - http://www.outdoor-adventures.org/ - (recently met
the new owners)

It's nice to be able to start from Lopez or San Juan island (and maybe
Deer Harbor on Orcas). The currents
can be a real bear unless used to your advantage. Huge eddies are along
island and can be used when going against a current.
