Garrison Bay Cruise
May 26 - 28, 2012
Anchor in beautiful Garrison Bay, which has a constant depth of about 15' throughout. A perfect situation for rafting, which adds to the party environment.
-
Onshore activities include touring the British Camp Historical site, hiking to the old British cemetery and to the top of Young Hill for one of the most spectacular views in the islands, or a visit to the nearby alpaca farm and store.
-
Also, a dinghy ride and/or a vigorous hike will take you to Roche Harbor Resort. Recommended is a visit to Westcott Bay Reserve Sculpture Park, where you can view over 75 sculptures by prominent Northwest artists on a 19-acre "outdoor museum" overlooking Westcott Bay, across from the Roche Harbor airstrip and cottages.
-
On Saturday evening, 1600 (4:00pm), we will hold a get-together in the form of a Happy Hour boat(s) to be determined. As always, BYOB plus a munchie for sharing. Bring your Scrabble games and Cribbage boards for our evening activity.
-
Sunday there will be a Geo Hunt at 13:30. Be sure to bring a hand held GPS if you have one. Following will be an onshore gathering Sunday evening at British Camp, beginning at 1700 (5:00pm). The menu will be Westcott Bay oysters and clams furnished by the Club, plus anything else you would like to throw on the barbie. Bring an hors d'oeuvre and your own adult beverage and, if possible, something to sit on. We will bring a portable bbq. Return to your boat for dinner, or stay and cook-out.
-
Please take note that the trip home on Memorial Day, May 28, can be rough due to many boat wakes. If you can stay over until the next day the ride will be much smoother.
-
If you know you are going, please notify us so we can be sure to have plenty of oysters for everyone.
