Gumboots in the Straits joins bestsellers Gumboot Girls, Dancing in Gumboots and Gumboot Guys in capturing the dynamic momentum of the decade and the enduring allure of the sea.

About Living Oceans

Living Oceans is proud of our track record of collaborative solutions that deliver results. We've been a leader in the effort to protect Canada's Pacific coast since we formed in 1998. We started in Sointula, a small fishing village on the Central Coast of British Columbia, yet our influence is national.
