Boaterhoming on the way to Anacortes! No need to chock the wheels, I dropped anchor! Try manuvering an 11 feet beam into your standard narrow campground! I got some stares from the other folks from their RV's! And no comments about setting the anchor or the amount of scope!!

The LoveDrive! I took a picture of this boat about 10 years ago in Renton, WA. I was surprised to see it in Reid Harbor!

Great photos. Thanks for sharing. What a beautiful boating area. Spending Christmas with my daughter in Portland, OR and hoping to get up that way and see some of Anacortes, Friday Harbor, Victoria with her and the grandkids after Christmas.
 
Great pics Sundancer, Looks like fun. Sunset photo is great.
 
Fantastic pictures! I do miss the Pacific NW when I see pics like these.
 
Nice pictures. I guess, that seaplane couldn't come any closer....LOL.
 
Nice shots Sundancer. The San Juans are a great place to vacation. Fantastic scenery, great boating, nice places to spend the night. What a life!
 
Thanks for sharing.
 
Great pictures. It looks like a great place to be boating.
 
These guys kept following us. I take it as a sign I need to lose weight!!

The ferries can guide you all over the islands.

The only PRIVATELY owned Catholic Church in the U.S. is at Roche Harbor:

Peter, they are great boat! I love ours and intend to keep it for a long time!
 
Some really great pictures there!

I especially like the one dropping anchor at the Campground. Reminds me of how dogs mark their territory! LOL. That had to have gotten some looks!

It can be a real "bear" to retrieve that sucker though!:smt043

We dropped in at Lake Easton Campground to spend the night. They only allow 10 hp or under on the lake. When people asked me how I was going to get around that I showed them the 3.5 Tohatsu! :grin: Needless to say we weren't going boating on that lake anyway! It was fun though!
