Turbo Beaver landing near Bella coola
What a stunning place especially with the enhanced scenery files.

I did make it. but was concentrating too much to take photos. Found steering towards the jetty very hard on water though. need to practice.

Guess that's the problem then. On a graphics note, I think I've got my water just about right. giving good reflections, but not too "glassy'"
