Patrick We made the run across from Silva Bay for the frost time last month. We had planned on doing Granville, but opted for Bowen Island instead, so I can't be much help with the currents in False Creek. But Union Steamship and the public dock at Bowen might be better than Gibsons because, as I recall, they are closer.

Silva Bay to False Creek. Have got Keats/Gibsons, Snug Cove, Fisherman's as alternatives if necessary, although these are mostly off track, any other ideas? I've been told False Creek can have 5 to 6 knot currents making docking tricky, does one need to aim for slack? With short boat length will need to wait for calmer seas. Any thoughts for a smaller boat? Patrick Wesley, The Boat, Sidney BC -- Patrick H.
