Thursday, February 24, 2022 at 8:02AM Looking for any updates on Larry Ross who lived on Thetis in 2008 in a Winnebago. His family is trying to reach him, and this was where he was living when they were last in touch.
Please send any information to editor@thetisposts.ca
Wednesday, February 23, 2022 at 8:11AM Just wanted to let the community know that TIES is going skating today (Wednesday), so there'll be a few extra cars taking the 9:10 ferry. Back on the 2:05.
Thanks,

Wednesday, February 23, 2022 at 8:10AM Hello
I’m searching for somewhere to stay every other week on Thetis, as I just recently received a chief engineers posting on the Kuper. Non-smoker, respectful, quiet and able to do many home maintenance jobs.
Would be willing to house sit. Would consider renting a spot for an RV also.
Thank you

Wednesday, February 23, 2022 at 8:09AM If you have an old but usable boat trailer, 2500 lb capacity and 16 to 20 ft long, that you'd like to get rid of, please call Ann at 250-246-8176.
For use only on Thetis. Thank you!
Wednesday, February 23, 2022 at 8:08AM In Canada, distributors and manufacturers of flares are responsible for accepting and disposing of expired flares. The term “distributor” does not apply to all retailers that sell flares as a product. Distributors are only responsible for accepting the brands of flares that they sell, although some do accept all brands for a fee. Flare disposal costs range from $4 to $10 per flare depending on the type. There are no flare disposal facilities in British Columbia, meaning all flares are shipped across the country for disposal in either Alberta or Quebec.
On Vancouver Island PACIFIC COAST LIFERAFT in Victoria accept all flares, THE HARBOUR CHANDLER in Nanaimo accepts CIL and Orion Flares only and ALL BAY MARINE in Sidney also accepts only CIL and Orion flares for disposal.
The Thetis Island Fire Dept. does not accept expired, damaged or unwanted marine flares for disposal.
Mariners should also check the Canadian Power Squadron website here: CPS | Safety Equipment and Flare Disposal Days - CPS (cps-ecp.ca). The Canadian Power Squadron plans flare collection events throughout the year. If people would like an event in their area they should contact their local squadron.
Wednesday, February 23, 2022 at 8:05AM I have 10 sheets of 4x8x1/4" sheets of varathaned(8 coats) plywood that I'm selling for $50 each, retail with taxes is $69.39. There are another 21 almost half sheets 2'x6' asking $20 each for those ones. Good if you will be painting them. I will be cross posting on Marketplace by the end of the week. rsmith1960@gmail.com
