Gabriola. Searching the Sea.

We had the pleasure of taking a few kids out on the boat for a few hours yesterday,  within a short time frame we viewed an amazing amount of sea life.  We started our adventure by pulling the crab traps first, and we were pleased to find they liked the bait.  We then went and pulled the prawn traps and although they didn't overflow, there was enough there to please the kids.  We found an octopus in one of the prawn traps, which was an amazing sight for the kids.  We ended our trip with a little jigging, and managed to get a quillback in the boat.  The 9year old kids ended up with a nice little goodie bag of treats from the sea, and were pretty proud to be providing dinner for their families.  The shores of Gabriola are rich with fresh seafood and have an abundance of experiences waiting for you to discover!

Ever wanted to Sail around Gabriola

True sailing is a new business to Gabririola Island, serving and catering to visitors.

"For many reasons, we are blessed, fortunate to have discovered Gabriola Island, the people, the wild life, the wild turkey's, the deer and the robins, the ducks and the geese, witness the free spirit of the eagles as they soar over head sailing in the wind. Not far from this setting, is the shore and the sea, where my own spirit is set free, where my passion can not be contained, where my horizons are limitless and my dreams infinite, yet I am not dreaming, I am sailing aboard Samatas, the most perfect boat in the world, in the most perfect bay, in the place I call home, Gabriola Island BC Canada.

Henceforth,our hope and desire is, to share, this passion, this ability, this effortless interaction of wind, man, and vessel, to teach, compliment, gratify, and satisfy, and above all provide a day of TrueSailing"
Truesailing to all, Michael E Zane
