Big 4.8 #earthquake shook our house for 30 seconds & it woke me up. The #epicenter of this quake, that happened a few minutes ago, is #FridayHarbor in Washington. It felt closer than that. Our house in #Saanich shook harder & longer than last quake that happened just last week. These larger quakes are scaring me/my family with their increasing frequency & higher Richter scale numbers.

I just reported our experience - you can report if you felt it too:

#Anacortes/#SanJuanIslands route on 2-boat service for rest of night. We will not take any vehicle reservation holders after 7p & no longer taking new standby vehicles out of #Anacortes, #OrcasIsland & #FridayHarbor to help those waiting at terminals get to their destinations.

We are having a difficult morning on our #Anacortes/#SanJuanIslands route. #Yakima & #Samish are out until further notice with mech issues& #Tillikum is out as we work to get crew to #FridayHarbor using the one boat in service. We're working to restore service & will post updates

Heads up #SanJuanIslands Interisland riders! Final roundtrip (starting with 530p #FridayHarbor departure) may be canceled daily thru Mon 7/8 due to unfilled crew relief request. We’ll continue trying each day to fill the position, but have had difficulty doing so the past 2 days. https://t.co/dx20D8RfXG

#Chelan has been towed out of #FridayHarbor and is en route to #Anacortes. #Salish is heading up to the #SanJuanIslands and will begin service as the Interisland boat beginning with the 215p sailing out of Friday Harbor.

We’re waiting for final Coast Guard approval to tow #Chelan out of #FridayHarbor tomorrow morning 8/22. At the same time, we’re working on crewing a replacement vessel to move north so we can resume #SanJuanIslands Interisland service by the end of the day tomorrow.

During inspection of #Chelan, divers found hull damage, which requires dry docking for repairs. We're working with Coast Guard on permission to tow boat out of #FridayHarbor & clearance for another vessel to serve #SanJuanIslands interisland route, which remains out of service.

We're working with the Coast Guard on investigating what led to the incident. Because there is only 1 tie-up slip at #FridayHarbor, our #SanJuanIslands Interisland route will remain out of service until #Chelan is cleared to move. That's when we plan to move another vessel there.

#Chelan likely hit the shoreline last night in Wasp Passage on #SanJuanIslands Interisland route w/4 passengers aboard. No one hurt. Boat returned to #OrcasIsland for initial assessment. Coast Guard approved vessel to go to #FridayHarbor, where it remains for further inspection.

#Chelan cleared by Coast Guard to return sail to #FridayHarbor. Vessel (and Interisland service) will be out of service until further notice to start the day Monday.

#Chelan interisland sailing to #FridayHarbor has returned to #OrcasIsland due to a mechanical issue. No other vessels can dock at Orcas until boat is cleared to sail by the Coast Guard.

My flight today is to Friday Harbor, WA - part of the San Juan islands in a #Cirrus SR22T #KFHR #FridayHarbor

#Sealth is in service as #1 boat on our #Anacortes/#SanJuanIslands route in place of #Kaleetan, which is undergoing unplanned repairs. Sealth about to get underway from mainland to #FridayHarbor and back on a late 615a sailing.

There will be additional schedule adjustments for #4 boat #Sealth on our #Anacortes/#SanJuanIslands route from the 215p until 530p #FridayHarbor departures to accommodate mainland traffic due to #Kaleetan being out of service due to mechanical issues.
