Canal Flats Bridge... Kootenay River!!

Do you ever have conflicts with other River users?
We went up the Kootenay and part way up the St. Mary’s from Koocanusa once, just before my friend sold his jet boat…pretty sure some fisherman on shore were none to happy with us. Gave them a wide berth at low throttle settings but they still seemed pissed off.

Had a couple give us the finger once but for the most part no issues. Be respectful and that usually is fine. River is open to all users.

Relic from Beachcombers knew about jet boats before we were all born!
Relic is my hero!!!!!
I visited Molly’s Reach in Sechelt just to see it!
I moored overnight in Gibson's a few times in years past and remember seeing Relics tub and the Persephone both moored in the marina, still in use.
The Persephone is dry docked now at the museum, don't know what happened to the old jet tub.
Molly's Reach has awesome burgers, its like stepping back in time when you go there. Funny this came up cause i'll be there in July.
