Chris:
It is hard to imagine better sailing areas anywhere in the world than the west cost of BC in the summer. Your account of your last trip to this region are intoxicating.

Ok Jefferson, (and Graham)
                                                  So I will increase the population of Rhodes in Canada by 50%.  Well for a couple of months anyway.
I'll be in BC for July and August, maybe some of September too.   You have
some of the most beautiful sailing in the world in your country, and I've only seen your West Coast.  I Still must find a way to see the Great Lakes; though, I might have to rely on the kindness of strangers.
