Cascadia Daily News Highlights M/V David B

Christine & Jeffrey Smith, long-time Coalition members and owners of the M/V 'David B' were featured recently in Cascadia Daily News' ongoing 'Working Waterfront' series, which seeks to tell the stories of the working waterfront here in Bellingham.


Christine and Jeffrey operate Northwest Navigation charters on the boat in Alaska during the summers, seeing all manner of wildlife and land.  The trips can be a couple of days, to a week among the remote wildnerness beauty of South East Alaska.


Read about how charter companies and operations such as the M/V David B rely on an inter-connected network of marine trades and suppliers local to Bellingham in Cascadia's latest article from the 'Working Waterfronts' series by Hailey Hoffman:
