Navigating Narrows

A ship's mate keeps watch from the bow of the M/V Kennicott while navigating Tongass Narrows, moving south out of Ketchikan Alaska.

 

From the Tongass Narrows Voluntary Waterway Guide: "When transiting the Tongass Narrows, please exercise caution, maintain extra vigilance and be courteous. Unlike other waterways, on Tongass Narrows you must also remember to scan the sky as there is a constant stream of floatplanes landing and taking off on these waters."
