Replace and repair Ediz Hook boat launch


Replace and repair Ediz Hook boat launch
The Issue
I grew up in Port Angeles, and from the moment I laid eyes on the Ediz Hook boat launch, it became a beloved part of my life. Every weekend, my family and I would head out early to enjoy the serene waters and the thrill of fishing. It was a site that brought joy to hundreds of local boating and fishing enthusiasts like me. However, in recent years, the state of the Ediz Hook boat launch has become a source of frustration and concern. We now only have one nice launch at the yacht club, and it's simply not enough for the hundreds of boaters that flock to our community.
What once was a well-maintained and safe launch has been neglected by the city of Port Angeles. The deterioration is appalling, with ramps that are now dangerous and hardly usable. It's not only an affront to the local fishing and boating community but to the town as a whole.
The condition of Ediz Hook not only affects the local residents who relish the lifestyle this marine activity provides but also impacts potential revenue that could be drawn from tourism. By revitalizing the Ediz Hook boat launch, we could enhance the charm of Port Angeles, attracting more tourists, and bringing substantial income to our small businesses and local economy.
We are proposing a full-scale repair and replacement of the Ediz Hook boat launch. This would involve the installation of safe, modern ramps and the refurbishment of the entire launch area to meet current safety standards. The city's failure to maintain this crucial infrastructure is a missed opportunity for promoting the town’s image as a vibrant coastal hub and for boosting the welfare of the community.
Join us in urging the city of Port Angeles to prioritize the refurbishment of the Ediz Hook boat launch. By doing so, we ensure safer, more accessible facilities for the locals and tourists alike. Let's make Ediz Hook a place of pride once again and usher in a new era of prosperity for our town.
Please sign this petition no need to donate money just sign and share.(i dont get any donations. Those donations go to the website. Not to the launch itself)show your support in making Ediz Hook boat launch safe and functional for everyone.
