Port of Port Angeles staff are busy getting the Port Angeles Boat Haven floating docks ready to be installed this week. The floats were replaced last year and the new floats provide several new features. Durable float tubs raise the dock several inches above the water and vinyl boat rub railing helps provide a cushion between the dock and boats. Also, a fiberglass deck was installed that meets a State Fishery Department initiative to allow more sunlight into the water, reduce pressure washing needs and provide better traction in wet weather. A grant application is being prepared to secure funding for replacing pilings and gangways, and modestly improve the ramp. Boat Launch permits are $10 daily or $35 for the year.
