I have cruised in both sets of islands the biggest difference I have noted is the size of the boats. There are many more big motor yachts in the San Juans than there are in Canadian waters. Most of the really big boats up north are Americans.
For an American the Gulf Islands for sure, 30% on your money 💰 Insight from your Canadian friends sailing around the world, currently in Thailand 🇹🇭. We’ll be back soon We’re from Sidney, like the spit
@@scottdoran-p6n thanks Scott, hope alls well in Thailand! Yes, while we love’em both (we’re currently anchored off San Juan Island), we really like the “American discount”, as we call it, when we’re in BC.
Great episode guys!! Can’t wait to see the rest of the series!!
@@afriesen72 thanks so much!

Yes seems that way to us too. Also seems like a larger percent of sailboats to powerboats in bc possibly.
Great video - missed you guys. My hubby and I are hoping to retire to Victoria and sail. Your video has convinced me to do it!
@@Trueblue1061 thanks! Enjoy Victoria, one of our favorite cities.

@@SailingSVIndigo Will do...usually out on the weekends...
Now that America has re-elected Donald Trump, I would say that the Gulf Islands are by far the better choice.
