Y'all watch movies and with today's pc graphics capabilities you wonder if the locations you're viewing are actually real. Watching movies and television for most of us is surreal. Its not real.

Being well travelled across all of North America occasionally viewing a program I can say, been there! That's what it's like.

One place close to home and a program probably few of you remember is Gibson, B.C. where Beach Combers was filmed. Years after the series ended I had opportunity to pass through the town and sure enough just up the hill from the docks was Molly's Reach and down at the docks was Relics black boat.

Likely the boat is gone now. Sold off maybe but Gibson is still there. Lol.

Even Molly's Reach is gone now. :/

The town is still there, but the restaurant that was Molly's reach had a name change, then got demolished a few years later.

I was just there less than 2 years ago, had a couple beers in Molly's Reach with a friend. I didn't see Relic's boat, but I did see the Persephone in the parking lot up on blocks.

dunno
