John was a long time member of the Washington Outboard Club, and for the past two years
was the person who did the Tidetable sheet for the Port only. He put a lot of effort into this.
John Was a fantastic individual and will be sorely missed.

Soft and Safe May Thy Rest Be My Friend,
Soft and Safe May Thy Rest Be.

Do you fish in the Deep Water Channel?
Do you use the WOC boat ramp to launch your boat?
Ever notice the partially filled milk cartons sitting on the doc?

Please leave them there. . . they are NOT garbage.
They help keep the Geese away, thereby eliminating
goose crap on the doc!

Have you ever seen one of our military walking past you and wanted to
convey to them your thanks, but weren't sure how to or it felt awkward?

Recently, a gentleman from Seattle created a gesture which could be used
and has started a massive movement to get the word out.
Please everybody take just a moment to watch.... The Gratitude Campaign
