Nanaimo Bathtub Race







I just happened to be in Nanaimo for the bathtub race. If I would have sailed down here a day later, I would have seen the boats racing around some of the islands I was sailing around. I didn't even know that they don't go to Vancouver anymore, not a result of the dangers involved with crossing the Strait, but because Vancouver was getting all the glory for the race, while Nanaimo was doing all the work. (it's good to talk to a local)
