Welcome to Missy Goes Boating

For the past 20 years,  I have been cruising the Pacific Northwest in my 34 foot Bayliner "As You Wish". I manage to get out most weekends from April to October with a couple of one week visits to the Gulf Islands or Desolation.  I love a good dock party or a side-tie in a remote anchorage and live for flavourful snacks, fun cocktails, a stack of magazines and a healthy dose of dock talk.

Missy & Jonathan

Hi! I'm Missy and this is my big red dog, Jonathan. I am a weekend warrior who loves to cruise the Pacific Northwest. I am a shopper and love cool products that actually work. My friends and I spend countless hours floating, sipping beverages and talking about what works and what doesn't. We didn't invent any of this stuff but we sure like to think we did.

Great for a quick trip to town to get groceries. Has multiple storage compartments, comfortable handle grips and folds up to store away.

Sterling Silver starfish charm with a spring-ring clasp. Take the beach with you.

Prep, serve and store. Five bowls, stainless steel interior, plastic exterior, non-slip bottoms with lids. Hot or cold.

Wheels on the back make it easy to throw your bag ontop. I have wasted a lot of money on coolers to find one that works! Sometimes available at Army & Navy or Costco.
