up the west coast

Well we are still alive and I see we have not put out any information for a couple of months. The house has taken up most of our time along with dealing with some family issues and we did not get away until the end of July. Our power boat Kilkea started up right away and all the systems checked out and we set off for a three week holiday up the west coast to an area called the Broughton archipelago which is about 150 to 200 miles from Vancouver. No roads up here or towns just beautiful fiords and mountains. The fishing has been good and we have met up with some old cruising friends in this part of the world. We will be back at the house towards the end of the month and hope to have all the restorations finished by the end of September. We hope!!! Otherwise we are well and looking forward to getting back on Kilkea II in Trinidad and heading out somewhere? This is just a short note so everyone will know we are still out here and doing well.
