I am hoping for some info on good launch ramps in vancouver. I am planning a trip to Princess Louisa in 2011 and it appears I will be launching from Vancouver BC. I greatly appreciate any info that might help in this trip. I have a 1979 Venture 25 and LOVE it Carolyn

You may wish to take the ferry from Horseshoe Bay to the Sunshine Coast and then launch at Egmont, which is way closer to the inlet. Be sure to have enough fuel for the long trip up the inlet.-Chris
