Default Woodies getting wet in Seattle......

Bad news for a lot of the beautiful old wooden boats that have been so
carefully preserved in covered moorage up here in the Pacific NW. The
City of Seattle has ordered covered moorage facilities to remove their
roofs or spend $$$$$$$$$$ installing fire prevention equipment and
sprinkler systems.


City of Seattle only?

For Commando's sake, that's a policy I hope doesn't make it up to
Everett... It's hard enough to keep a 65 year old boat looking good,
even when it's under cover!
