Part of our 2 week vacation in the waters of British Columbia - we made our way to Desolation Sound. The farthest north we ventured was to the Octopus Islands, anchoring there for a night. The trip in was beautiful passing through The Whole in the Wall passage at slack tide. The hike trailhead was a quick dinghy ride away to Waiatt Bay. The trail to Newton Lake took us about an hour to get up to the top with a few scrambles on the way up. Everything was well maintained and the DIY nature of the signs was picture perfect - they were a big help. The lake water was warm and clear. We got there in the late afternoon so the sun was hitting just right. This was the highlight of the trip for the kids - until we arrived at Prideaux Haven the next day!

🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [1/52] 🪢 Did you know that you can use common cooking oil to keep your boat toilet’s flushing system smooth and easy flushing? It’s really simple, you just take a tablespoon of the oil you have at hand and pour in into the toilet. Then, in empty mode, you pump a few pumps and then it’s done. Do this 1-2 times every week and you’ll soon see a difference! The oil will keep all the internal rubber parts soft and prolong their life span, meaning less shitty maintenance for you 💩 We usually do this in the evening so it can sit for the night 😴 Extra tip: If you have canned food that’s preserved in oil (like sun dried tomatoes or mushrooms) it’s perfect to use the oil that’s left in the can before throwing it out. Be sure to save this post to remember it the next time you see your boat toilet 🚽
