Previous guests had left so much stuff behind that the shelves were mostly full. We hauled a full contractor bag away with us. Please don't leave anything behind besides maybe fuel and water.

Cabin and deck are nice and comfortable. You can enjoy a great view of the sound or set on the beach, weather permitting, in front of the cabin. However, the toilet needs to be emptied and taken care of as it is getting to the point that the pile will soon reach the seat. I suggest that you bring one of the small, inexpensive battery powered fuel transfer pumps to transfer the kerosene from your container into the cabin kerosene holding tank as the fill port for the tank is at about eye level above the deck for the average height person. (My nephew splashed kerosene into his eye because of the height of the fill spout). It wasn't serious as we were able to flush it out of his eye with water, However, it could have easily been worse and could have splashed onto his clothing as well. (I have since purchased on of the small transfer pumps at my local hardware store for about $40.00.) Aside from these issues it is a very pleasant and functional cabin. We come into the cove at low tide using the GPS for marked rock avoidance and had two people on the bow for visual observance. After that we followed the "tracks" on the GPS in and out. The low tide we come in on was a +0.7, the shallowest water we encountered was approximately eight freet so at minus tides one would obviously encounter shallower water. All in all a good time and good experience. It was 2½ hours from Whitter to the island running at about 26 mph. I recommend that you consider extra fuel as we had to run back to Whittier to get more fuel, and had to limit our site seeing excursions,
