E8 We Have A Visitor and Problems

[@Grizztrails]

Hey guys just catching up on all the videos, enjoying the channel. Would love a full tour of Penta.

Glad you are enjoying the videos, I have been thinking about doing a full tour and history of Penta, as much as we know anyway. Maybe in the next few weeks I will get something put together.

false creek is the last place id leave my boat unattended, you can do your own mooring balls over on the island and live for free after the initial cost of dropping one. Vancouver area is not at all friendly toward live aboard cruisers

No intention of staying long term in False Creek, but it was fun to visit for an over night and we will probably spend a few more nights there, but I agree about leaving the boat unattended for any length of time. It is unfortunate that there are a number of areas on the BC coast that are not secure and others that are not livaboard friendly.

@@WhatsNext-acrc ya the governments are trying to get rid of marinas. New westminster just raised their leases 50%. Ladysmith shut down a marina. the natives in NVan tried to shut theirs down and up in Prince Rupert they just jacked up some leases 200%. Mooring balls are federal and there is nothing local politicians can do about it. get one while you can.
