I've suddenly got a week to bareboat around the San Juans in August.
Anybody have any favorite places? Never been, probably leaving from
Anacortes.

Its has been awhile, but good memories:

Sucia Island - beautiful anchorage
Hunter / Mud Bays - quiet anchorage
Rosario Resort - great restaurant
Fisherman Bay - interesting navigation into the entrance, difficult
anchorage
Friday Harbor - just because
Roche Harbor - upscale
Deer Harbor - good marina
Reid Harbor - nice anchorage
Matia Island - nice for a walk, strong current in the north bay

This is a busy time. The August long weekend will be the busiest.

You might think about a side trip to the Gulf Islands. Clear customs
at Bedwell Harbour. Clear back to the US at Friday or Roche.

Just visited Port Townsend for the first time. Worth checking out.
