Duncanby Landing (51°24.38'N,
127°38.78'W) is a great haven to unwind after the
northbound challenges of the Queen Charlotte Sound crossing.
Craig Long of Powell River became the new owner of Duncanby
over the winter of 2004-2005. New roofs on the buildings,
decking on the docks, and power and water lines on the
docks; a renovated liquor store, grocery store, restaurant
and kitchen; and a new generator have brought this facility
right up-to-date. The 800 feet of dock face is now serviced
with twelve 30-Amp power outlets and six water outlets.
Hours for Jessie's Bar and
Restaurant, that operates from July 1 through September
1 each season, are 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. There are sixteen
refurbished rooms for the fly-in or smaller boat travelers.
Dean McLaren, dock manager, can be reached by satellite
phone at 403.997.8516.
