The Pacific Northwest offers hundreds of destinations for boaters – even if the border to BC is not open. Mark Bunzel, the Editor and Publisher of the Waggoner Cruising Guide will take you on a tour of the favorites and how you choose which ones to visit. We will talk through how to develop a fun cruising itinerary that works for your family or crew to focus on the special new destinations you may have not yet visited. Or how you can build a special trip that follows a theme such as favorite hikes, gourmet food experiences or swimming pools and attractions for kids.

How many times have you found yourself just not doing the right thing to ensure you will happily come alongside a dock with no mistakes or misjudgments? After being taught by Pam’s husband, Andy, the easiest method of coming alongside a dock, no matter what the wind or tide is doing, Pam has perfected for coming alongside a dock because it is so easy. See how Pam comes into her slip or alongside any dock that has cleats or bollards, with ease and safety most every time. Watch what Pam was taught and uses on a daily sailing basis to get her boat safely and efficiently alongside a dock. Hopefully this will help others to have that same feeling of a successful docking experience every time. See Pam’s web-site www.pamwall.com or contact Pam at pam@pamwall.com.

This is a great opportunity to take advantage of Pam Wall’s many cruising miles in her 39 foot sloop KANDARIK. One of the best things about living and cruising on a boat is that you become able to take care of just anything that needs attention to your floating home. Pam has lists to help remember what to look for, how to repair or replace, or simply maintain most of the equipment found on an ocean going sailboat today. This list, and all the information Pam tells about each item, will help you become the self sufficient Captain of your boat who knows what to look for and how to keep your equipment in good working condition. See Pam’s web-site www.pamwall.com or contact Pam at pam@pamwall.com.
