Profile: Tending navigation bouys in Alaska’s Inside Passage
Fri, August 24, 2007
Posted in Alaska News
Navigation on the coastal waters of Southeast Alaska is challenging even on a good day. Over 50 floating aids, and hundreds more fixed markers guide mariners along Alaska’s Inside Passage. The Coast Guard Cutter Maple is responsible for making sure the buoys are working, regardless of the season or weather.
