Major Snow Event and your Neighbors

Posted on by

Good morning, neighbors…as you know, we have a major snow event coming this weekend and sticking around through next week. The accumulation predictions have been from 7-12 inches. As we are all aware, but it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of: Be careful walking the docks, and don’t be afraid to ask your neighbors for help. Check in on those that you don’t see regularly or have limited mobility.  Don’t drive if you don’t have to. Use common sense with your space heaters and don’t use extension cords with them! Shut off your water heater breaker when running the electric heaters. Make sure CO and smoke detectors batteries are in good shape. Stay warm and dry.

You have today and tomorrow morning to make final preparations.
• Make sure you have enough food to last the week+
• Top off your water tanks while the hoses are defrosted
• Top off your diesel
• Check/clean your space heaters
• Add extra dock lines and secure your tarps for the possible high winds that are predicted again
• When it warms up and starts to melt, make sure your scuppers are clear to drain
• Top off your car gas tank in case you get stuck out driving, and have water, snacks, blankets and boots in the car

SLA Winter Party at CYC

Posted on by

The Shilshole Liveaboard Association put together a great little Winter Party at the Corinthian Yacht Club.  Of course, there was a fine cruiser potluck, and I was thrilled to see a good turn-out from O-dock. With a fun Monty Python theme, Kristen and her crew decorated with banners, spam and mini-grails, and even a entry drawbridge. We had live music, good camaraderie, and even a silly walk. It was a small Winter turn-out, and with only one loved child, so she got most of the pics. What a good fun evening! Hope you can come next time – thanks all!  see pics here…

Emergency Preparedness

Posted on by

Last night there was a presentation at CYC from the City of Seattle Dept of Emergency Preparation.  About 30 marina residents and a couple Sunset West condo residents attended and were given an overview of what to do to prepare yourself for a major earthquake here at Shilshole.  Tsunamis are what most people think of, but with the location of Shilshole this far down the Salish Sea, we most likely will see a surge or higher than normal water levels-no crashing rolling tsunami wave.

What is more likely to happen is landslides… Continue reading →
