At latitude 52°, Desolation Sound is a narrowing inlet meandering into the coastal mountains of the 'sunshine' coast of Canada, a remote land of rocky islands, steep cliffs and deep water, unnamed creeks and waterfalls.
Combine sail training and history and sail from Port Townsend north in the Straits of Georgia through the Canadian Gulf Islands, along the wild west coast of Canada. With 4 shipmates, play in the sun, anchored in quiet coves beyond heavy tidal action, where depths are not charted and the phone doesn't ring.
You will become part of the crew by helping raise the sails, standing watches, charting your course, and taking the helm. Participation in sailing is only at your comfort level. Spend days taking in the beauty of the narrow passages up through the Gulf Islands. Learn about this magic land of fjords, un-named waterfalls, wildlife and history. Families welcome. No previous sailing experience necessary.
