Thanks for the tips! Six days after it headed northbound, the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN-68) is headed back home to Bremerton, passing the mouth of Elliott Bay right now before turning into Rich Passage.

    Any idea how long it will be in Bremerton?  Or how do get advance notice when it heads out again?

    Little trivia here. Due to their draft and not wanting to chance a grounding aircraft carriers only transit Rich Passage right at high tide.

Sorry, comment time is over.
