Boat and Dock Security

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.
