Cruising South Through BC’s Beautiful Central Coast in Our Nordhavn40! Part 1

[@hendecourt]

I think Ranger must have a titanium bladder! Thank you so much for this latest post. I look forward to the next chapter.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Yes Ranger won’t go on the swim grid lol. He would rather hold is pee for 10 hours that go on it. We tried telling him it’s okay ranger go pee!!! Lol

[@petewhite85]

I have shared your videos with my old dock mates at Shilshole. I like how you often show Ranger's POV. That's one lucky dog.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Awe did you! ☺️ Thanks for sharing us! Ranger is one lucky rescue dog isn’t he! From the dog pound, onto the ocean lol

[@stefanhellemar4501]

Your boat has a great sound,👌

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

👌 it’s the Diesel Luggar Motor that rumbles deep! It sounds tough lol

[@adventure002006]

Great Video. Desolation sounds is always calling our name too😁

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

We love it there! Just cruising the Johnston Strait now

[@rachellevaughn913]

Was so nice to see you both!!

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Love you my friend oxox.

[@rosslee9055]

Your adventures bring back such fond memories, I spent many summers in my family’s logging camp that was located in Goat Harbour And our Sundays were spent getting all the kids loaded on the boat and going to Butedale to get candy at the store ,this was back in the mid to late 60’s another lifetime ago

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Oh wow that’s so neat. Yiu must have amazing memories of that time. Would have been neat to see the logging camp and how Butedale was back then

[@ThoughtfulWander]

Redneck Command bridge!! Love it! 🤣😂🤣😂👍👍👊👊 Ranger look like he is living large and loven life on that Redneck Command Bridge too 👍👍👊👊🐶🐶

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Thank you! So far the seas have been good to us! Even the crossing wasn’t too bad! Phew. 🤗

[@ThoughtfulWander]

@@MVSKOOKUM1 👍👍👊👊 good news indeed! 😃😃

[@annottobay]

Once again, thanks for sharing. It is beautiful to see the surroundings I can only imagine what it is like spending time on the water in the area and visiting all the little Towns and different spots.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

That’s our fav thing to do is stop and visit areas and then leave and visit another area. We usually don’t stay at marinas! 80-100$ a night is just out of our tight skookum budget lol. We love it !

[@richardtaylor7536]

Love to see you guys back on the water again . we sold our 1988 Monk 36, 2 years ago and miss it so much. great listening to MV Skookm1 engine as you sail along. Looking forward to seeing more of your Videos.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Will you ever get another boat again? We love it so much, makes us want to cruise the world and never work again lol. Well I guess we need to work to pay our bills! Thanks for watching us cruise along ⚓️ jen

[@gerhardvanwaltsleben8944]

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Thank you!!!

[@derekzmom]

Amazing! If you make it to Desolation we may run into you :-) Word of advice, if you need fuel, do not get it at Lund, the prices in Powell River are much better!

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Thanks for advice! I can’t believe the prices now $$$. That would be cool to run into you. What kind of boat do you have? 🙂

[@derekzmom]

@@MVSKOOKUM1 A 28' Bayliner. We are headed out sometime around July 20th, destination Broughton Archipelago!

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Oh nice! We have to head back up north by then. Wish we could stay longer down here!

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Love the Broughtons!

[@mrdns63]

Awesome guys I hope you have a great vacation we might be heading to van.. island in a couple weeks if i can come to terms with the fuel prices cuz i don't mind the drive.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

It’s so nice here! These fuel prices just keep going up and up!

[@ericr.3759]

Wonderful video! Hope you can show us more of the Hakai area on your way back. Cultus Sound and the McMullin Group would be great to see. If you search for mvdirona, you can find some cruising guides to this area.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

I wish we had more time to spend in those areas. I feel like we are always rushing to get down south lol. I guess our limited time with having to get back to work. We love the Hakai area. It’s beautiful! The camera doesn’t do justice for the sounds and smells. We will have to look into Cultus and Mcmillin! And check out Mvdirona! Thanks!

[@ericr.3759]

@@MVSKOOKUM1 That would be great. You would be the first to do a cruising video of the largest conservancy park area on the west coast of the Americas. Please do. So many have explored Desolation and the Broughtons but few know the central and northern BC coasts as you. I hope you can share more of that with us. Thanks.

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

For sure! We love exploring so much! Sometimes I wish our boat was a little faster so we could rip around and see all the beaches too!

[@GoldVP...]

Now i know where Slade Compton's boat is docked. Lol @ 3:15 out front on the right, if you pause on that time stamp

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Yes! Lol. ⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️

[@kirkhuddleston9387]

Only one week left before we take off from Colorado to Bellingham to charter a Seahorse 52. Can’t wait!!! 🦀🦐🦅🐋🦭🐙

[@MVSKOOKUM1]

Wow that sounds amazing! How fun!!
