Musgrave Harbour on Saltspring Island

Sunday was the first day we could get on the water.

We were going to go out crab fishing, set some traps out in the morning, and get them in the afternoon.  However, there was a problem with the boiler at the green houses, so Hans couldn't get away.

We headed out in the early afternoon in a small 16 ft power boat with a 90hp motor on the back:

Hans/Debbie friends have purchased a cottage in Musgrave Harbour on Saltspring Island, so we want to goto there to check it out, along with some other ones for sale.

We put the power boat in at a boat launch on an Indian Reserve ($10), and were blasting up the Saanich Inlet at 30 knots.

Musgrave harbour is a private community with their own docks and lots/houses all around.

That's a C&C 40 under the tarp

How kewl would be be to have a cottage facing the harbour:

 ...and have your boat moored in the harbour?

We came upon a group of Sea Lions:
