Had a great time at Blue Drinks this week!
Always good to connect with others in the maritime world and share what’s on deck for the season.
Huge thanks to and the Working Waterfront Coalition for putting these gatherings together, and to for hosting everyone!
Grateful to be part of such a hardworking and supportive waterfront community ⚓️🍕

Meet Kaiden ⚓️🐟
Now in his third season as a deckhand, Kaiden is a core part of our crew—and Captain in training. He’s been cruising the islands with his dad, Mark, since his car seat days, and it shows. Calm under pressure, quick to lend a hand, and always ready with a grin—Kaiden’s the guy you want on deck.

During the school year, he plays football for Mt. Baker High. In the summer, you’ll most likely find him here on the boat, helping guests —or, in this case… rescuing a lost cooler from the bay (🎥 swipe to see the surprise inside 🍻😆).

Whether he’s fishing, hunting, or just soaking in the salt air, Kaiden’s got saltwater in his blood and adventure in his bones. We’re lucky to have him.

Cold and clear reads the log book on Opportunity Knots the last few days. That’s a recipe for some flat water and amazing sunsets!
