If you’re in eastern West Seattle and heard a lot of sirens, it’s a large “water rescue” callout (to Terminal 105 Viewpoint (4260 West Marginal Way; map) – we’ve heard scanner-traffic fragments about a “derelict boat” and “no patients” but no other details yet; our crew is just arriving to find out what’s going on. 10 PM UPDATE: It’s a capsized boat of some type, but nobody’s hurt; police and fire crews on the Duwamish and on land are still there checking to be sure. 10:18 PM UPDATE: Back with a photo. That little boat between the Seattle Police boat and the officers on shore – that’s the source of all the hubbub; authorities at the scene told us it may have been adrift for some time, but someone finally noticed it tonight and worried that it might have been a recent capsizing, and that call triggered the response.
