I took the engine to Performance Marine who conducted a very thorough inspection of the engine and recommended I get a tune-up and service the water pump as well as fixing the tiller cable. I also had one transom bolt that was stripped and they replaced that as well. This engine is a workhorse and I have had it for decades with no issues. It is reassuring to know it has now been professionally inspected and tuned up. I will probably get many more years out of it. Ironically, after I picked up the engine from Performance Marine, it was literally a YEAR before I put her in the water. When I finally did, I was nervous (and a bit embarrassed) that I had never tested it after the repairs. To my delight, she fired up on the second pull! A fine day ensued crabbing and sight-seeing on Dungeness Bay in Sequim.

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

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.

The marina is located right by the entrance to the Navy base, so we pass it on our way on/off the base when going to the Navy Exchange or Commissary. If one is able, it is fun to walk the docks to just look at the boats and talk to some boat owners if they are out and about. Also, the bay on which the marina is located has some very cool rocks along the water's edge. Fun to take a small dinghy with outboard motor out on the water to do some geo-exploring around the bay. Not too far a ride away from the marina. All around the marina serves as a nice base for some nautical adventuring.

I would be very very careful about spending your money here…read more We spent over $3,000 between a full setup of cold water dive gear and brownie 12v compressor that Harry recommended for our system and needs. On our first dive the compressor failed to perform as expected, it didn't fit our style of 12v plug (which was the reason we had purchased this particular system from Harry in the first place.) From Alaska we called Harry to deal with the problem he never returned our calls. We initiated phone contact 4 more times over our summer. Each time saying that he would look into the problem and each time never hearing back. We took it on ourselves to do extensive troubleshooting, we rewired the plug/made adapters, (all to no avail) the system would not work when plugged into either of our vessels. When we brought the compressor back in the fall to come up with a solution, it was the end of the summer dive season and he told us that it was in not in returnable condition. We used the unit for two 30 minute dives, cleaned it after each use and stored it in a storage bin afterwards for safe keeping. Harrys solution to the problem was to offer $0 in credit for a $2000 dollar unit and suggested an even more expensive units without even doing as much to removing the freight charges. Throughout the process he avoided accepting any responsibility for selling us a product that was incompatible with our system. Like the other one star review says, the rest of the staff seems really nice.

We rented our gear from the dive shop right in front with two tanks and got into the water at 5pm. We were lucky that day as the waves were calm and visibilitiy was 40-50 ft. The good thing was the walk at the sand was short but the surface swim to the first buoy before we sank down was a 10 min swim and easy to cramp up in cold waters. We saw enormous groupers, sunken ships, crabs, large sea slugs and my boyfriend even claimed he saw a seal pop his head up to the surface when we were swimming back to shore. The best recommendation for this dive is to call the dive shop in advance to check if other divers said the visibility that day was good - makes a world's difference!
