Port Townsend Boating Mishap

High winds and unusual sea conditions prevailed in Port Townsend on Friday morning, causing this craft to end up on the beach. Those aboard were rescued by the Coast Guard as onlookers watched.

In the far distance is Point Wilson Lighthouse and the Straits of San Juan De Fuca. Normally a very quiet inlet with no waves, and the biggest threat is usually floating logs.
