This is our first few of Desolation Sound and after all these years it was very exciting for both of us to finnally get here. We came from Garden Bay up the Malaspina Strait past the town of Powell River and the treacherous Grief Point. Fortunately for us the trip was uneventful. Despite the flood tide and the NW wind which thankfully was weak we did not encounter heavy seas and actually enjoyed the 6 1/2 hour journey. We had some difficulty finding the enterance to Cortes Bay, having been warned of rocks at the entrance but Al carefully followed theChart Plotter and we had no trouble. The new SYC manager took a line and gave us a warm welcome on the dock. We were so happy to be here.
