Our trip called "Bonneville" provides a new perspective on a familiar section of
the Columbia River, from Portland to Cascade Locks. We go through Bonneville
Locks twice and sail in the broad waters above the dam where windsurfers
generally outnumber all other vessels. It is a sailor's paradise, and the trip
to and from is flush with scenery. We also offer day-sailing by the hour from
Cascade Locks.
