Great pics of that beautiful area.  No way would my wife let me go camping with a female canoe partner.

Dang! Next time you're in the PNW, gimme a holler. I've got 5 boats in Olympia on the South Sound, and 5 in Kirkland on Lake Washington at my disposal. Capri 22s, J22s, a couple Catalina 25s, a San Juan 23, and my own US25. I'm currently rebuilding an early '70s Folbot Greenland with sailing rig to explore the South Sound with.

This was last summer on my 1971 Suzuki TS250.
Picture was taken on a little section of the Pigeon river between Indian River and Afton Michigan.
I rode about 120 miles that day and only rode about 20 miles on pavement.

Maybe I should address you as Commadore. ;) 

Haha  thought about having that put on my business cards..

I'm in Portland mostly for the winter, but as it warms up, I'll be in Olympia more and more. I really like the place, in fact, kinda fightin with myself about moving up there. Lots of unexplored bays and backwaters, not to mention millions of miles of outrageous motorcycle roads..Anyway, you're welcome anytime. So, where are you sailing to?

Great boats! Shop around, there are several different interiors, with and without pop tops and fixed or swing keels. Some have actual marine heads, some just porta-potties. The one we have in Olympia is a swing keel pop top that the PO took up the coast to Alaska.
