The Shilshole Liveaboard Assoc. strongly supports individual and community preparation for times of emergency.  We have a page here devoted to training and resources.  One of those is FEMA.

FEMA’s Community Emergency Response Team Program trains volunteers to prepare for the types of disasters that their community may face. Through hands-on practice and realistic exercises, CERT members:

• Learn how to safely respond to man-made and natural hazards
• Help organize basic disaster response
• Promote preparedness by hosting and participating in community events

This is our opportunity to hear the latest updates from the Port regarding security, construction, proposed changes, and any other issues concerning Shilshole Marina.  All dock captains are required to attend and all marina tenants are welcome!

Notes from Port-Dock Captain Mtg 4-23-19

All yearly registration Decals for boats in Washington State expire June 30th. Per the WA St. Reg. Requirements, all boats with a motor (including tenders) on Federal Waters (Puget Sound, Lake Union and Lake Washington) are required to register and, if not a Federal Documented vessel, must display registration numbers.  It’s easy to do online and the decals are ready the next day at the Ballard Licensing Office or they can be mailed to you.  Tabs can be renewed up to 6 months before expiration so don’t wait for the last minute rush!

A group of volunteers will be out cleaning up Golden Gardens this coming Saturday, March 9.  Read more here…

It can’t be stressed enough,…PLEASE don’t let anyone through the gate that you don’t recognize.  Ask them:  Who they are visiting? What boat? If they belong here they will appreciate your observation.  If they don’t, they will challenge you and make a fuss.  So what!  Politely direct them to the Marina Office for access.  This is your home and neighborhood and you have a duty to help keep it safe.

If you See Something, Say Something!

Call the Marina cell at 206-601-4089, 24/7 for any concerns.  Always call 911 for an emergency.
