Skoota 28 passing through Malibu Rapids at high slack water
Malibu Rapids lie at the entrance to Princess Louisa inlet, one of the most dramatic in British Columbia. It should only be passed at slack water. This video shows us passing through at high slack (easier than low slack) on our Skoota 28 power catamaran. At maximum the current runs at 7 knots and generates large standing waves. Always announce your passage on VHF16 as it is a blind channel and boats cannot safely pass each other.
