Getting into this bay was a challenge as the charted depths were totally lousy. If anyone from the Canadian Hydrographic Service is reading this, time to join the 21st century and take GPS tagged sounding data loggers from yachts and include them as qualified soundings when you have nothing else to show on charts! We turned around in 3 meters of water where the charted depth was over 20 meters (West entrance to the bay).
On the brighter side, we had a 1970s Pink Floyd moment when ashore and made a valiant attempt at stoner art. We welcome comments that state that such valiant attempt at art was really really good and discourage any comments to the contrary (while promising tha we won't quit our day job and take up photography as a career).
