Here at Nanaimo Yacht Charters & Sailing School, our charter guests are from all over the world! This past season, we had the pleasure of welcoming Bob and Isabel Joce to our Charter Base. Isabel wrote the following article about their trip for the Cruising Association. We want to recognize the Cruising Association, who in their own words state that “The Cruising Association is a unique, mutually supportive association dedicated to those who cruise on small boats throughout the world. Our information, collected and shared by members, is of unequalled quality, quantity, breadth and relevance.” You can find more information about this organization at their website: www.theca.org.uk

Have you been looking to learn how to handle a powerboat and receive an IYT: International Yacht Training – ICC: International Certificate of Competency for powerboats, along with exploring our beautiful west coast shoreline?

As we are now in the throngs of summer, we thought we would have a look at the best of island sail charter in the Vancouver area. We are so blessed in this part of the world, that we have a large number of islands to choose from around which to sail in our charters. There are literally hundreds to choose from; something which the British Columbia coastline is world renowned for. It is a picturesque playground for charterers. In the North of Vancouver Island you find Port Hardy. This island port is a gateway to some exquisite chartering territory and also has the convenience of first rate mooring and marina facilities. Also in the area is Broughton Archipelago Marine Provincial Park (just off shore from Telegraph Cove). Throughout this marine park, you can explore several smaller islands for the perfect island sail charter experience. The North of the island is a great place to sail your charter if you are looking for something a little off the beaten track.
