Your Shilshole Liveaboard Assoc. will hold its annual meeting this coming Saturday, 8-29 to review our past year’s accomplishments and discuss upcoming issues affecting us as liveaboards here at Shilshole and within the City of Seattle.  If you are a Port-authorized Shilshole Liveaboard, you are welcome to attend.  There are also a couple open positions on the board if you are interested in getting involved.  This meeting will be held on the marina plaza from 4-6 pm.

The SLA is a neighborhood association to foster education, safety and community with the liveaboards at Shilshole Bay Marina.  If you are interested in getting involved, please contact your Dock Captain (whose information is posted inside every gate).

R2AK is a 750-mile boat race from Washington to Alaska.
No ENGINES. no support. all guts.

First place gets $10,000, cash. Second place gets a set of steak knives. Everyone else gets to find out what they’re made of. Any vessel that’s human-or-wind-powered can enter. The only way to win is to cross open water, navigate through tidal rapids, hug a coastline carved by glaciers, and keep going until you reach Ketchikan. Teams have 36 hours to complete this without getting rescued.

MEET THE Teams

Good luck Shilshole sailors!

June 8th is World Ocean Day, reminding us that we all need to do our part to reduce the plastic we use and to always practice good environmental stewardship!  As boaters, the ocean is our backyard, and our playground and just like we wouldn’t want to see plastic bottles and trash while hiking in the woods, we don’t want to have it in our waters, either.

Responsible Environmental Suggestions
