Currently anchored in Cortes Bay up in the PNW.
There is a fine Albin Vega beside me and what looks like a 25 or 26 beside it from the late 70s-80s
Not familiar with several boats out here as I assume they are from west coast builders and didn't make it east.
I'll add to this as more unique boats are spotted

Bay tour...here goes.
About a 25-26 with high cabin for headroom.
A few other unknowns
Pretty sure a Catalina 25
Thinking the one is a SanJuan 25
A cute little pilot house about 25-26ft
A pair of 20s..
The last picture looks like a thunderbird to me but it's not hard chine..
I know they were produced in GRP in the end but thought they retained the same chines..
Any ideas on the above.. fire away

Thanks Frank, though it makes me sad that I haven't been up there in quite awhile. Planning on some kayaking around Vancouver Island next summer though.
