A quick note to those that have not been here before, Ganges is a busy harbour, come into the main harbour, would not advise coming in by the east entrance, unless have good nav program moneymaker reef and a narrow entrance to main harbour make for a challenge. There are lines of white buoys marking the seaplane corridor stay to starboard side all the way in and watch behind for planes coming in, lots of moored boats to weave around, you will come all the way to the head of the harbour mostly on the starboard side until after the government docks you see the pub and marina with the long outer dock at the end then cross to port side to enter B linear unless you have another berth....see you there!

Our plans for Princess Louisa have changed and it looks like we WILL be able to show up at Ganges. I don't have access to my old emails and cannot remember if and when there will be a potluck. Please let me know soon as we are in Ladysmith tonight and can do some shopping. Even better, call!

Thanks,
Mike and Barbara

It is Saltspring Marina in Ganges Harbour at the top of the bay next to Moby’s pub that you will be checking into.  They sent me a confirmation so you should have received one by now if you have a reservation.  Contact them on 66A as you approach the marina.  Their phone number is 250-537-5810.
