As of April 2020, Washington Governor Inslee has issued a Safer at Home stay-home order with a three phase plan for reopening once metrics are reached and maintained. We wish to work with our community to both maintain and protect community health AND provide imagery that marks this pivotal time in history.
Although our ships may be very, very different, we’re weathering this unpredictable storm with you. We’re here to discuss any and all the things you’re encountering during this strange time in our collective history. Until then, stay safe.
