We were thrilled to host a successful Green Boating event at the historic Kirkland Cannery on January 23rd! It was an honor to have former Governor Jay Inslee and his wife Trudi join us for an inspiring afternoon focused on protecting our underwater ecosystems.
We are grateful to our host, Carl Bradley and friends, plus The Bradley Family Foundation, for their hospitality and generosity. We are honored that former Governor and climate advocates Jay and Trudi Inslee joined us, and we deeply appreciate all the work they have accomplished on behalf of underwater forests of kelp and eelgrass meadows. Special thanks as well to our funders and partners who joined us, including The Harder Foundation, Northwest Fund for the Environment, The Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Family Foundation, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Washington Conservation Action, OnBuoy, and Port of Seattle Commissioner Fred Fellemen.

Schedule a boat club presentation. Email [email protected] to schedule a free presentation to your yacht club, power squadron, or boating community. We’d love to share more about anchoring out of eelgrass, the new boating regulations for Southern Resident killer whales, and other resources to leave a clean wake while exploring the Salish Sea.
