I think someone told me a person can call in from Bamfield and clear Canadian Customs there. Anybody know for sure? My mothership is very near completion, and Barkley Sound is definitely one of the locales I plan to explore with it. Not sure I want to cross from Neah Bay, but maybe. Mine is a minimalist mothership (a daughtership?) with a small V-berth and no galley -- cooking is on a campstove on the fantail -- and the portapotty spends nights on deck in the cockpit, days inside the cuddy cabin. Our boats will be foldables, stowed in the cuddy when running, assembled on the engine cover (it is an inboard), and gingerly entered off the stern. Still working on how to leave the kayaks and hump ourselves over the rail, back into the cockpit. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
