    The obit. from his kids is a real testament. We should all live life to deserve a similar one from our kids. RIP Dave.

    Snow

    Had one of those at a house I rented in Montreal one year. Saved my back when we got hit with a 45cm dump. Never been able to find one here in the Lower Mainland. Speaking of snow removal, my kids used to love watching the snowblower/dump truck show Like their own episode of Mighty...

    Do I need it ... No, but I want it. Rivian Truck

    Not the same scale, but I was a little pissed when the battery in my 2007 Prius, with a 10 year warranty, died in 2017.5. Replacement was about $4K IIRC.

    damage to deck or water in core?

    Thanks @Rayvon. Not sure how long it has been like this. I'm guessing a couple of weeks, but it could be a couple of months. The headliner is fiberglass. I'll get on the deck holes ASAP. Pretty sure there is water in the deck core.

    Not in, but I think I was passed by one going around Pt Atkinson last year. A real beast in the chop.

    Heading to Egmont For a Night, Where Should I Stay?

    I've stayed at Bathgate: https://bathgate.com/ Clean room and quiet. No transient moorage at their marina though (at least not last year) so you have to tie up at the government wharf a few steps away. First come, first served on that. My want the Back Eddy if you're interested in something...

    Mid Size 7 seat SUV with a little towing

    My Toyota Highlander was written off this summer (guy crashed into it and a couple other cars at the marina) and I ended up with a 2018 Honda Pilot. It's bigger than the Highlander but still fits in the garage. 5000lbs towing.

    Where to buy denatured alcohol in lower mainland

    Yes, looks about 1/4 the price of ethanol, but with the kids on board I'd rather pay a bit more for something less toxic.
