Gordon, thank you for waiting so our Seal Sitter first responder could immediately spot the pup and quickly secure the site. Sophia, we hope you got a nice walk after displaying such patience and restraint. Thanks to all the passersby who were understanding of the need to close off the lower walkway. By the way, this was a weaned pup who has to feed itself and who needed to rest after a night of foraging. Thanks Beach Drive community!

Neat! Judging from the relatively short length and the fairing at the base of the ‘sail’, it looks like it might be one of the 9 new ‘Virginia’-class submarines we have. Of course the Navy probably won’t say; they don’t call it the ‘Silent Service’ for nothing!

Comment on Anyone have a winch to help out “The Skipper” by rhonda

Hi Susan, according to Scupper, someone is at the park to help the skipper out… along with an upset condo owner who does not want them on the boat ramp.

We are checking with the Seattle Parks department and confirming that the boat ramp by Harbor West Condos is public.

The ramp does not allow for motorized vehicles (hand carry only) which is why there was the call-out for the winch.

I hope he gets his boat soon!

Scupper…I appreciate your nonjudgmental updates of this situation. I’m sure that the skipper appreciates your help. Wish I had a wench.
