Full Name:: Dennis Pennell Narrative:: We will launch from a place called Salalus, GPS coordinates 49.62242, -124.02567 . From there we will pick a route/direction based on conditions. The general idea is to explore Pender Harbor out to Charles and William Islands, then loop back along the other shore possibly as far as Gunboat Bay to the east for about a 10 statute mile trip. It is possible the distance might extend to 12-13 miles depending on the route chosen. Due to the east-west nature of this body of water it should be fairly protected from the northwest or southeast winds.
