South Sound Cruise Redux


Hosts (tentative): Rick and Ann Giles, Ray and Deborah Valpey

If you have never cruised the South Sound, you’re in for a treat of great, uncrowded locations, with some fun and short “sailing” in between stops. Start at Gig Harbour, and join for all or part of the cruise. The plan alternates between anchorages and marinas. The last time we did this we had 22 boats. No one was bored. Ever.
