I do not have local knowledge of the area. I was there last May and your
statement may be correct. Between Kake and Juneau I did not see any advertised refueling point. That does not mean that you cannot get fuel. The city of Juneau have a well detailed website. They may be able to refer you to some sailor that has local knowledge. The distance from Vancouver to Juneau is 820 n/miles. Juneau -Tracy’s arm is about 50 miles. Juneau - Skagway is about 94 n/miles where they have fuel. Your type of vessel, engine, fuel and tankage along with current and at time strong head wind will determine your requirement. The other way is to contact the Fuel companies servicing the local fishermen and Ranger boats and ask about their deliveries point and time. On the Canadian East Coast Irving oil do have trucks that deliver to fishing, cruising boats and large ships You may already know this: Should you decide to visit Glacier Bay you will have to make arrangement with the local Rangers. They only allow 25 boats per day in the bay at any one time. When talking to the local Rangers I was informed that VHF and cellular communications are not always dependable. As for sat/phone they were not sure. "Sarah Colwell" wrote in message ... I cruised the Inside Passage last year and was not able to find gas between Juneau and Kake. Does anyone know if that has changed? I'm going back next summer and want to see Tracy Arm, but would sure like to be able to get some gas somewhere in there. Capt. Jeff |
