Join us April 5, 2025 | 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM for our annual Marine Thrift Swap Meet! The Marine Thrift Swap Meet, organized by Northwest Maritime, happens each April in the gravel lot immediately adjacent to Marine Thrift in Port Townsend’s Boat Haven. Bring your cash and stock up on used and useful tools, hardware, supplies, and more. Clean out your shop, empty your garage and turn your old stuff into cash. It’s free to sell. Note that at the end of the day, you can donate your unsold items to Marine Thrift and get a tax-deductible receipt!

Mark your calendars and double your yoga classes—SEVENTY48 is back, and it’s kicking off earlier than ever. On Friday, May 29, 2026, at 7:00 PM, a human-powered flotilla will launch from the Foss Waterway Seaport in Tacoma. 70 miles. 48 hours. No support. No sails. No engines. Just you and your muscle fibers. This is a race against the tide, the current, the clock—and maybe that voice in your head that asks what on earth you're doing out here. Whether you’re racing to win or for some other reason, SEVENTY48 doesn’t care how you do it—as long as it’s 100% human-powered. Kayaks, SUPs, pedal boats, rowboats, outrigger canoes, inflatable flamingos retrofitted with bike cranks—if it moves without wind or fuel, it’s fair game. And yes, there are prizes. The total prize pot typically tops $10,000 (based on the number of racers at the starting line), and the first to finish takes half of it. The rest is split evenly between three class winners and one Random Hero—chosen from the finishers, so even last place has a chance at the cash. Registration opens November 15. https://seventy48.com/ 🎥: Ryder Booth
