I've booked a return on the Chelan for 16th Sept for coach and toad 65'

In total.

Is it true that I can line up at Anacortes the evening before?

At Sidney, can I do the same? If I want to unhook and go into Victoria is that a plan for the evening.

Are there things to do if I am in the queue in Sidney.

It's an expensive exercise $450 or so but I think it's line ball with staying in a motel for 3 nights cause I have to leave the RV somewhere anyway if I just took the car.

With a day on 18th planned with Aboriginal Journeys to see the Bears will I need another day to go Whale Watching??
So far only the 17th is free??

So many things to do and so little time

If your DW , can drive the toad on separately , you can save $$, because the over-length charge is higher than paying for another vehicle.

I'm sorted.
Decided to just take the car. Boarding at Anacortes.
Overnight Victoria, Campbell River & Nanaimo
Returning to Vancouver.
So mainly spending Canadian $$ as my Aus$$ only buys me 70 c US.

Great plan to not take the Motorhome since its off the road for a week or so.
I made a booking at a motel in Anacortes
Note to self
Always allow DW to book motel
What a dump - 60's style
Included breakfast - well it would have been had I not told DW I'd take her out to breakfast - had we have had "breakfast" in reception as was to be the case I would have suffered more embarrassment at booking such a crappy joint

For 4 days it was much simpler to just be in the car.
Checked out a couple of campgrounds at Campbell River 1 very nice 1 very bad
I think it was $600 round trip with the coach less the car and we spent just about that in motel accommodation.
