No I won't be drinking while in my boat however, I do plan on transporting six cases of beer a bottle of fine Canadian Whisky and a couple gallons of wine to my cabin for the week. Just transporting isn't a violation is it?

Just as long as all the containers are unopened you should be ok, it is pretty clear to see you are packed up and heading to camp and not a leasure drive.
Keep releasing them all

Like the previous post stated, as long as the cases are still sealed and the seals on the booze are not cracked, it is not a problem. As extra insurance, keep the booze as far from you in the boat as possible. There is a rule about proximity to the operator for cars, but I'm not sure if it applies to boats. I can find no mention of that on the Coast Guard site.
Won't be a problem. When you make the run from Minaki up to Harbour Island they won't even look @ you. In that area they totally understand the need to transport goods via boat. HOWEVER, having a cold beverage in ones hands & missing a container in the proper case may get their attention......I really wouldn't worry about it.
Good Fishen
