Planning a trip to Vancouver Island this summer. Got Waggoner's, but
it is aimed at live aboard cruising vessels. Thing if Ganges on Salt
Spring and Gabriola Island B&B's for a few nights, before heading to
Tolfino and Campbell River and Tahsis. Any suggestions for resonable
B&B's? The $120-150 / night range. And close enough to mooring
sites. 21' boat.

You're trailering right ?
Tofino is no place for a 21'er unless you're launching there...
Sorry living here I have zip experience staying in accomodations here,
but this area's tourist oriented stuff is big in being online, so google
should give good results.
Ron in Victoria

Tolfino, I will launch there and will be in an RV place there. Truck
camper. If water is bad, I will stay behind the islands, or more time in
Campbell river / Tahsis areas.

Enjoy BC, and especially our island.
No 'L' in Tofino :-),
Be sure and hit Wikkaninnish for dinner.

If you want to absolutely spoil yourself, spend a night he

http://www.hastingshouse.com/

Rooms are a bit more than double your budget..........but wowzers.
The restaurant at this hotel is also *outta sight* (and I'm not
merely referring to price..) :-)

I saw that in an internet search. Along with not leasing cars, I
mostly avoid the $500 a night hotel, I have to pay for.

(Rates start at $360, but it's certainly possible to spend a $500)
You can knock off about another 5% for the exchange rate. :-)



Then there are the local taxes and the 17% VAT tax. And the tip for
the maid service.

PST (prov) is 7 %, GST (fed) is 6% for a total of 13%,
rooms may indeed have something else added but not any other product.
Hey an american that tips :-)))
just kidden,

Hehe!!!! Let's see. Bill claims to have plenty of money, yet in
retirement, he works as a handyman, cleaning gutters and such, and
needs lodging in the $120 range.........that's precious!


You can be certain there are a lot of people who post here who make/have
a hell of a lot more money than you do. Is that worth a "Hehe!!!!"? If
your sole purpose was to attack someone, maybe, but when you are the
only guy laughing, it's pretty pathetic and hardly "precious".

Probably. The difference would be that you consistently trash other
people when you aren't up Harry's ass.

I see you exhibit another common trait with a few other agitators
here....that is, you have a fetish for the male buttocks.
If you can afford the medical, I recommed therapy.
