    Hello from England. A great video and what a wonderful good deed for that blind person. Given that Shawn loves to keep the boat clean I’m surprised he didn’t take the opportunity when wearing the scuba gear to scrape any barnacles off the hull!

    I'm a Nanaimoite and appreciate your honest assessment of Port Place downtown. It's too bad that you weren't able to take the very short walk to a truly spectacular bakery with excellent Nanaimo bars. And top tier coffee shops too. Commercial Street is worth navigating in the daytime to see the unique boutique shops and galleries.... but you are completely correct that the concentration of homeless is intimidating in some spots.

    I understand why so many mariners use Dodds Narrows, its just as easy to use False Narrows between Gabriola Island and Mudge Island a little to the east of Dodds. I lived dead center of False Narrows for 37 years beside the road access. 3 - 4 knots of current. Just follow the markers both sides that are on the shore line on Gabriola. Our log salvage boat drew 3 ft and had no issues at low water.

    Not sure if it’s still popular, in the summer there are sailboat races on Wednesday evenings at the Dinghy Dock. Usually light winds so a couple of times around the harbour or on windy evenings, out to Snake Island can (red) buoy. Unfortunately crappy politicians have led to a crappy downtown.

    Shame about Nanaimo. Big homeless and drug addiction/mental health problems in many cities now, but Nanaimo is particularly bad. You probably walked through the worst of it on your way to the Save-on grocery store. Other areas, including the seawall are much nicer. I wish there was more political will and better solutions to deal with these problems.

    • @sammyseagull

      The name honors the Spanish Finance Minister, Don Pedro López de Lerena, Count of Lerena, who supported the movement of Spanish Ships over there. In 1850 the British renamed it after Rear Admiral Phipps Hornby, then Commander of the Pacific Station.

    Don't judge Nanaimo based on your walk to the grocery store. Yes there are unfortunates there because there are services in that shopping area for them, but we've never been approached by them or felt threatened. The downtown area is full of fun restaurants and shops and should not be missed. We are from Puget sound and have been to Nanaimo many times by boat and find it a great stop for provisioning and relaxing.

    • @timeflies-sicamous5578
      @timeflies-sicamous5578 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      To have steerage you have to have water passing over the rudder from front to back, that the rudder can redirect and force the bow from side to side (with a direct or V drive). If a following current is faster than the max speed of your boat the water is not passing the rudder from front to back and hence no/reduced steerage. Over to you Captain! 😅

    There are many great restaurants, pubs and shopping without the poverty a little further north downtown and in Old Town.

Up on the mountain to the west. You need a guide IMO if you want to experience the charms around and further afield from Nanaimo as there is lots to do and see here. The Dingy dock food looked good and a lowball critisizm may have been based on prices which suck everywhere nowadays.

    I notice you guys are divers on your IG. You also mention in the video that you didn't think of Nanaimo as a destination. You're missing out on some FANTASTIC diving around Nanaimo if you're not treating it as a destination ;)

    Should you be standing up on the bow with the radar going? As you were doing after you came through Dodd narrows.😊

    I can see Nanaimo hasn't changed. It's been a flaming infectious boil on the buttocks of BC for a long time. Would never, ever, live in that hell hole. I know you can go outside the city or cherry pick certain areas but make no mistake, you will run into the crap all the time no matter where you live. The city leaders have failed miserably.

    I give the Dingy Dock a strong 2 on visual alone, just more frozen fish deep fried and that is yawn,,,, boring. A seafood town restaurant surrounded by fishing fleets, should have fresh fish.

      Hahaha. A strong two seems like a weak revisit.
