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?

As a beginning start with NorthWest Boat Travel.

It covers Tacoma to Skagway.

Make sure that you get the appropriate charts.
The Canadian Hydrographic Service has produced chartbooks of the Gulf
Islands and Desolation Sound. They are less expensive than buying a
single charts.

Be weary of the tides (18 feet) and currents (15 knots) just north of
Desolation Sound.
