One of our favorite things to do here in Whitier, when it isn’t raining, is to hang out at the harbor. We try to catch a glimpse of the Harbor Seals with their old soul eyes, talk to fisherman, weekend warriors, vacationers, or Princess Cruise travelers and walk along the docks picking out our favorite boats. So, we thought we would share some of that with you, at least the boats, the seals are too elusive to photograph and we are too busy talking to get pictures of people.
Sit back as we take you through a mini harbor tour!
First, let me introduce you to the Harbor Master. We didn’t get his name, he was too busy working!I don’t know that these are our favorite boats, but since I used to work with the US Forest Service I felt like I should include their fleet of 4 boats. They are here because Whittier is inside the Chugach Forest.I really like these metal boats.And another one. And they both had great names.And then there are the tug like ones like this one,and this one,and this one.This one was Darrin’s favorite. It was an Allweather Boat made to travel anywhere.This boat gets the award for most potential. With a little work and a different color scheme, the Lime Sherbert Boat could be a cool houseboat.
