Hello,
Just wanted to say looks like a good crew here, found the site while researching a trip I am planning from Astoria to Gig Harbor on a boat I am considering buying...though it is not a Trawler.
I was interested to read experiences taking a small boat from Astoria to the Straights...and I found a good thread or two on the subject!
For those interested I am looking at a 1973 Chris Craft Commander 36' Sportfish. I have boated in Southern California and the PNW over the past 20 years, and have been looking for something I can use with the family year-round and take the kids out fishing/crabbing/shrimping on.
This won't be my first trip offshore, however my first in a small boat. I will also have a couple friends along that have larger sportfishers and have run from Seattle around Vancouver Island several times...I am sure we will do well if all goes well on trials and survey in a couple weeks
