Random question, but for those of you that have cruised on longer trips from Mid puget sound (say Everett) North, what’s your view on laundry facility availability?

Reasonable to find a marina with facilities weekly?

Is it typically seasonal?

Lots of waiting or pretty reasonable?

Thanks in advance. Reading up on it in Waggoner but figured to get some first hand experiences.
 
Laundry facilities in most medium to large marinas in the San Juans, Southern Gulf Islands, the bigger Sunshine Coast marinas as well as in Comox, Campbell River, Gorge Harbor and Refuge Cove. Up in the Broughtons there are several larger marinas with them too.
We have only had waits at the Friday Harbor Marina laundry. If the place has showers it likely has laundry facilities too.
 
The only issue we had with laundry service was that every marina seemed to use a different App, and you had to load a minimum amount onto each app. All together is was probably an extra $5. The App letting you know when your laundry was done was almost worth it.
We ended up making friends with the other people doing laundry and always enjoyed the experience. I don't think you should worry about it at all.
