    Default Deck crew needed for an hour or so to move Skookum Maru in Seattle this weekend

    For anyone who has been following the Skookum Maru thread, you will know that the completion of her spring maintenance work has coincided with my emergency coronary bypass operation. So I'm unable to handle the boat myself and get her back to her home slip. We have someone lined up to pilot the boat and my wife, Tory, will be aboard to help with lines, but we could use one or two other people to help.

    Right now she is in the water near the Ballard Bridge and she needs to move to Stimson Marina, by the locks, so it will be a short hop. The timing is somewhat flexible but it will likely happen on Saturday or Sunday morning. Please PM me if you can help.

    When I am back on my feet I will be happy to return the favor, including serving as locks crew or any similar needs in the future.

    Many Thanks!

    I would if I could, but I can't so I won't. Figured you wouldn't wanna pay airfare anyway. Good to see you're doing what the docs said and get better fast!

    Thanks Garret! Another time then

    A bit of a change in plans on this side of the country though. I was too hasty in assuming that we would be able to do it this weekend as there is a Small Craft Advisory in effect all weekend. So that's out then. Looks like Tuesday would be the next available window. Which might make it hard for people to make time, I understand. But if by any chance you do have a free hour on that day please let me know. Thanks.
