It isn't a deposit; it is a fee. It doesn't matter if the reservation is months in advance, or if you cancel months in advance - no refund. Our boating plans change frequently due to changing weather, etc., so we could frequently lose the fee. This policy is unfair and unscrupulous, and the only marina or other business we know that does this.

The people are nice and the docks are well maintained. Why does everything have to be so complicated? Another thing is the guest docks are FAR from the office. Maybe to me 10 minutes.

I have worked with him now for what is going on three years- he has done some work on my 2001 Campion boat (with a Volvo Penta engine) and I have him take care of the winterizing at the end of the season and de-winterizing at the beginning. He also doesn't do work that isn't required and he does work the right way. For example, I made an appointment with him last week to bring the boat in this week. I brought it in and he did the work and now it is ready already. I would 100% give the best recommendation for this business and as long as the guy owns it, I'll keep coming back

Joe, the owner, is one of the more enjoyable people to deal with. He is patient and will explain what they are doing in a manner that is easy to understand. He and his mechanic are also VERY willing to give advice on work that you might undertake yourself and avoid a trip to the shop. All in all, a great business to do work with.

Visited the Seattle area on business and had one free day to do something fun. We called several…read morecaptains who already had weekend trips booked and one of the companies we called suggested that we try Captain Craig. We're glad we did! We decided to fish for Ling Cod as it was too early in the season to fish for Salmon. The Seattle weather was not very cooperative, however Captain Craig did everything we might have hoped for to make the best of the situation and come home with fish. We began by fishing for flounder to be used as bait. The poles were already rigged and in great shape. The Captain told us the goal was to catch 12 six to ten inch fish, and that's exactly what we did. While in route to the fishing grounds the captain pointed out two blue whales that were playing off the port side of the vessel. While he was careful not to disturb the whales, he did stop the boat and drifted for a while as we took advantage of the photo opps presented by this unplanned surprise. While the whales were in sight,the captain sounded more like a professional tour boat guide than like a fishing charter captain, so we felt like this was a big bonus. On to the Ling Cod grounds and then came the wind and the rain. Wearing our foul weather gear we did our best to outlast the storm, as we were determined to catch at least one Ling Cod before we would retreat to dry quarters! At last, a fish was on, and soon it would be filleted and traveling to the east coast. With gel packs. Dispute the weather we had a wonderful time, fishing and laughing and surviving seattle weather. To avoid disappointment, you should not expect a well polished professional commercial fish company. Fishing with Captain Craig is more like having a friend from another life who takes you out fishing. The Captain has all the knowledge and experience needed. He knows the right spots and understands the how to take advantage of the tides.The best way to describe the vessel, Gratitude, and it's amenities is to say its a classic and it's what you might expect from a guy with a boat in a fishing village. If you're expecting a sixty foot Viking and a captain with a couple of mates and to take photos of accommodations to impress your friend, then this is not the place to go. But if you're looking for a guy with a nice side boat ((about 38 feet) who knows what to o and where to o to catch fish, who charges a reasonable rate, then look no further. You'll have gratitude that you fished with Captain Criag on the Gratitude. The bottom line, the price was right, we caught a nice fish, had a great time, and look forward to returning when the salmon season opens.

Not a lot of people know about this place on Lake Union, but it's very cool. You can learn all…read moreabout boating and the history of boating in Seattle. You can even take lessons or join one of their sales. The museum is free and it's not huge, but it's really nice. There's a "sister museum " on Camano Island but it's currently closed. I recommend Center For Wooden Boats if you're in the Lake Union area and are looking for a fun way to spend a few hours. The downside to this place is that, despite the parking lot right out front, the parking comes with a fee and the spaces fill up quickly. The streetcar stops right in front, but as a former volunteer it's inconvenient for me due to the time and amount of transfers it takes to get here using public transportation. But it's a fun place so if you don't mind the lack of free (and sometimes even paid parking is non existent) parking, this place is worth a visit

City workers were in their office (at work on the road) and the road was closed past the park. Driving all the way up to the road closed sign, I saw the turn-in for the parking lot and was relieved the entrance was not in the section of the road that was closed. The park has a variety of offerings including numerous soccer fields, two large baseball fields, pickleball courts abutting a fenced-in grassy sitting area equipped with benches, a skate park, a playground, a restroom building by a flagpole, porta-pottis scattered throughout the park, and two horseshoe pits. I had not thrown a horseshoe in 15 to 20 years (I am approximately 30 years old as of writing this on 24 May 2023). So, knowing I was bigger and stronger than the last time I threw one, I picked up a horseshoe and threw it better than I ever did when I was growing up. Fun to see the decade-plus rest served my horseshoe-throwing skills well. A swallow soared past me and Lepton in the parking lot and European starlings were hard at work foraging in the grass of one of the baseball fields. A worker was mowing the grass past one of the baseball fields. It was an overall serene exploring experience.
