Working the crowd
Yes, the PassageMaker Trawler Fest brings many new faces to town, but there are familiar faces, too. Pictured here is Peter Whiting of Northwest Yachts, relaxing between guests at his booth in one of two exhibition/vendor tents. My cruise through the tents also included encounters with locals John Hackstadt (Best Day! Yacht Sales) and Wayne Gregg (Gregg’s Diesel Service). Outside the tent I ran into Pat Barrett and Cap Sante Boat Haven Harbormaster Dale Fowler, Port Executive Director Bob Hyde and Assistant Harbormaster Wes George. It’s been a great weekend for Anacortes restaurants, motels and shops … I hope it has been a profitable weekend for those in the marine trades as well.
