Hi Russ and others, many thanks for feedback, very useful. Russ you say "In either case, keep in mind the breeze will lighten up on the other side. So a forecast of winds 15-25 knots will typically have 25 knots at Sister's Island and maybe Bellenas and Entrance Islands and 12 - 15 at most on the Vancouver side o' the strait." Does this hold true for all wind directions? Regards, Patrick
