    Hi Daisie – I also just learned about Lam Marine, which does the same but closer – on E Cordova towards Clark Dr. They usually offer 3-day turn around, but they were able to print one same-day for me for the same price, $30.

    To finish posting trail signs at Simson (Cynthia K and I started this past weekend and we did about half of them) I’m seeking a buddy or buddies who will either carry the light short ladder or a 10 kg pack and be prepared to walk about 8 km each day. It is easy work along quiet forest trails. Travel options are to kayak to S Thormanby I from Brooks Cv or to take my small power boat over from Coopers Green. Both routes are short. Camp 1 or 2 nights – more likely 2 nights if kayak transport is used. Camp at one or two of the main sites – Farm Bay, Pebbly Bch and Drift Bay. The ladder and signs are already on the island and can be left behind for later pickup when finished. My preferred timing/dates are within next 2 weeks and in decent weather – no high SE winds. Earliest for me would be this coming Thu.

    I could do this alone, but there are valid safety reasons for a 2 (+) person crew and I’d prefer company, too!

    Thanks for these! I missed the meeting (because I was coming back from a trip!) but these are a great idea, thanks to all who prepared them.

    Jericho Sailing Center is great.   You can store your boat, get a locker for your gear, launch off the beach, and eat and drink at the Galley.   You have to love a place with an oceanside community centre.

    And about $350 for a full year of membership and kayak storage.  I think it is a deal.

    I am new to this area and need to store sea kayaks. Does anyone have  suggestions of storage facilities that are reasonably priced in Richmond or Vancouver?  Thanks.

    I’m afraid there will not be space for our library this evening.  So sorry for the misunderstanding and inconvenience.

    I am searching for a used deck paddle that is 208 cm or 82 inches in length.
    It would be great to hear back from you in time to pick up the paddle at the Sunday meeting.
    Thank you,
    Meridy

    Meet mamao! Thos beautiful Delta 16 was designed to balance manoeuvrability with excellent tracking. It easily keeps a quick responsive pace and has enough storage capacity for multi-day exploration. It features a low profile front day hatch, new Press-Lock Hatch System, proprietary bow and stern Paddle-Park, and Delta’s multi-position Contour II Seat System. Rounding off its features is a rudder for enhanced tracking or directional aid in rougher conditions.

    And that was just the kayak. This set is complete and ready for summer:
    – Kokatat lifejacket
    – Werner carbon paddle
    – skirt
    – safety kit

    – waterproof bag and phone case

    – sail
