Patrick recently skippered this vessel from Bellingham, WA, back to Sidney, BC—handling all the navigation and border crossing requirements.

Whether it’s by ferry or flight, he can meet you where your boat is and bring it home safely, even across international waters.

With years of experience on the water and a proven track record in challenging conditions—including once completing the Race to Alaska in a 17-foot open boat—Patrick knows how to get the job done right.
