I will be making a passage in my E35 MKII from Channel Islands Harbor to Marina Del Rey Memorial Day Weekend, yes I know... the timing is unavoidable. Any tips, tricks, warnings, thoughts? Anyone made the trip? Tim

Does anyone know how to get to the Togean islands, off of Sulawesi, Indonesia? I have a family member travelling abroad and they are in Indonesia. Just Curious,

Greetings, My wife and I are planning a 10-12 day cruise from Bellingham, WA up into the Canadian Gulf Islands. I am looking for any good literature ( cruising guides) on this majestic Island group. I have Bill Wolferstan's "Cruising guide to the Gulf Islands & a good set of Canadian charts...

I'm going to be dropping off crew in Santa Barbara on July 4th, and I just spoke with harbor officials there who said they don't take reservations and that they fill up quickly a day or two before the 4th. My options are anchoring outside the breakwater, or heading Ventura or Oxnard. Of the...

Since we are down here in San Diego anyway, maybe we should sail out to the Coronado Islands for a few days ? As I understand it, we'd be in Mexican waters but would not need to clear customs coming back as long as we don't make contact with another boat ? We can't go ashore, but we can...

New to the forum. And, I'm a newbie sailor (sailed a little, many years ago) and last week bought a sailboat, a 1972 Ericson 29. It's in Channel Islands Harbor, and I eventually need to have it in Marina del Rey or Redondo Beach. I'll have to find someone to help me (and my sons, one of whom...

Sails extremely well and is in good condition.She has an almost new Full Batten lose footed Main, Roller Furling, Spiniker, #3 Genoa and a Drifter. Wheel Steering. Atomic Four...

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could comment on the availability of wifi/internet access N of the Gulf Islands through Desolation, Broughtons, and possibly the west side of Vancouver Island. We are planning on leaving Portland mid-to-late May and bounce around up there for 6 weeks or so...

I'm leaving this Friday for Pt. Townsend, Victoria, Sidney, Ganges, and then Nanaimo by the 30th. I have a friend who is turning 40 and he wanted to spend some time in the Islands. My wife will be joining me later in the trip and we will take a nice leisurely 8 days to get back to down to...

I will be down in this area early next week, and having never been there, am wondering about anchoring locations. Looking at the chart, there seem to be only a couple of accessible spots for a 6' draft, north side of Sheffield, between Copps and Chimon...Any advice from someone who's been...

I'm querrying the group to see if you have any preferred moorages in the Gulf Islands South of Nanaimo? I've been to Poet's Cove, but plan on heading a little further North this year weather permitting? Additionally, I would like some recommendations on where we can pull in to take showers...

I was wondering if there are any other Ericson owners that have cruised the Channel Islands extensively. I have a E-27 in San Pedro and am planing to go to Santa Cruise and beyond next July or August with a couple other same sized boats. My experience with the Channel Islands is some what...

We'll be heading to the Coronado Islands for the Labor Day weekend and would love the company of any of you So Cal Ericson owners. Have a safe and enjoyable weekend and please say hello if you make it out there. Cheers. Paul Fruedian Sloop E29 #45
