Beaching Puffers were the only way to get supplies to parts of islands without proper piers. Although many islands had good piers, it was often more efficient for puffers to sail for a few hours around the coast to beach and unload at the cargo’s destination. Puffers would be floated over a beach at high tide, and would settle onto the sand as the tide went out. The crew and local inhabitants would then work hard to unload the cargo before the tide rose again, allowing the boat to float free. This was more practical than transporting the cargo from the ports via small island roads. ‘Taking the ground’ was not easy, and skippers used their experience and knowledge to safely beach their boats. There was always the danger that an unseen rock could damage their puffer. Contrary to popular folklore, the bottom of a puffer is not flat. However, it is flat enough to be able to beach safely. In some places it was not possible to beach and rafts or small ‘flit boats’ would be used to ferry cargo ashore.

On Thursday, January 23rd, 2014, the MV Evergreen State, the ferry that regularly operates the Interisland route in the San Juan islands, was brought out of Service due to a problem with her old equipement. This unexpected problem brought the Hiyu, the smallest ferry in the Washington State Ferries fleet at a mere 34 cars, into service for Friday, January 24th and Monday, January 27th (there is no interisland service on weekends). This went along extremely well as I had a day off on January 27th. As a result, I went up to Anacortes, rode a ferry to Shaw Island then toured the islands on the Hiyu, stopping at Lopez, Friday Harbor, Orcas, Shaw again and Lopez, where I disembarked before taking another ferry to Anacortes. As the ferry was crossing Harney Channel between Orcas and Shaw islands, coming to pick us up, I grabbed this shot.

Island life if the best kind of life but there are only so many times you can go to the Greek islands before you realise there’s more to life than lamb gyros on the beach. Hard to believe but true, we promise.
