Salmon Fishing In Canada
A Maritmo is not just for cruising. Chris Meekley, his son Joey and friends took their new Maritimo 52 out to do a little fishing. What they came back with was one heck of a fishing tale and quite a few salmon too.
The group left Vancouver August 11th on a journey to Bamfield, BC on the west coast of Van Island in Barkley Sound. They reached their destination in 7 hours cruising at 26 knots.
The stretch of water from Victoria BC to Balmfield can get very rough. This stretch is often called the graveyard of the Pacific But as you can see from the photos, they had nothing but calm seas.

Maybe it was just the way things looked that morning around the marina at Roche Harbor Resort, a lovely little spot on the northern coast of evergreen-fringed San Juan Island just a short floatplane ride west of Bellingham, Washington. Or maybe it was just the weather, which was absolutely spectacular, with an air temperature of 68°F, atmospheric conditions so incredibly clear that visibility seemed unlimited, and just the faintest whiff of a breeze now and again. But I swear, once I’d come up the teak-paved stairway from the saloon of our Australian-built Maritimo 48 and entered the flying bridge, the view dang near took my breath away. And I was just as impressed with the cruise-friendly ambiance of the place.
