Press Release Body: VANCOUVER, British Columbia, After sailing thousand of miles to
exotic destinations in the South Pacific and Mexico, Elixir, a 53 foot sailing ketch
is now ready for short scenic cruises in Indian Arm or customized trips to the
picturesque, laid back Gulf islands archipelago of Strait of Georgia in British
Columbia.

Beginning this week, the company will offer two daily 3 - hour cruises in Indian
Arm, one of the most picturesque Fjords located in North Vancouver, British
Columbia. Chris Stanecki, owner of Vancouver Sailing Charters, says \"guests can
enjoy the trip on Elixir, which is a blue water 53 foot sailing ketch, built in
California by Pacific Marine & Bruce Brudvig in 1976. The boat has an extensive
history of cruising in the South Pacific, Mexico and the West Coast of America\".
Home cooked meals are served to guests while on the water as well as other
activities (lunch usually consists of a seafood platter, fresh salad, hot bread and
delicious pancakes or omelets complemented with real Turkish coffee, tea or juice).
While on tour the guests can try windsurfing, kayaking, snorkeling, or exploring
deserted beaches using one of the boats dinghies. One of the more popular activities
for the guests is crabbing or digging for oysters which can be barbecued on deck
later that day. For those interested in First Nation’s culture and history, the crew
can arrange a host who will entertain the guests with stories and songs.

The guests will experience the shores like the first explorers did 200 years ago but
more importantly they can do nothing but sit and relax watching the changing scenery
of our magnificent shores. Information on schedules and prices can be found on the
