I have a desire to trailer my boat to Washington and depart for Alaska.
My uncle did it in a 22ft Sea Ray 30 years ago.

I have a twin engine Regal 2660. Range is 150 mi. (statute) and I need
to find out if I can get gasoline along the coast.

How do I find out?

Your a bit late in the season to try it this year, but there is always
next year. Cell coverage is good in southeastern alaska if you have a
NATION WIDE EXTENDED Coverage Plan. Gas is available within your
cruising range, but an extra tank would be advised for safety sake.
Nothing like a good set of charts, with an electronic backup.
20+ft tides are common, so make sure you got enough chain and wire
for good scope. If you stop a Sitka, you didn't come far enough north.
Glacier Bay is WAY COOL, and if you get to Excursion Inlet, seek out
Grumpy Bruce, for a Hawg-anDos Bar.
