Military Defense Agency's SBX radar vessel

I read in the Peninsula Daily News that this was coming through the Strait yesterday, so I went down to check it out.  It was pretty cool seeing it go through the water.   You can read about it here or see a short video on it here.

  1. I captured this also! It was very slow wasn’t it? We saw it coming. I am short so couldn’t really see the top of it across Protection Island but Mike kept watch and finally when it was in a good position I took some shots. We also saw a trident sub about an hour earlier.

  2. Pat, it was going soooo slow! I am such a goober, I didn’t know it went that slow. I called the PDN and asked when they thought it would be going through Sequim and they said some time after noon. It was close to that then so I got in my truck and hurried down there and this lady was going really slow in front of me on the way there and I was thinking hurry up lady, I’m going to miss it! Then I got down there and saw how slow it was moving and laughed.
    My neighbor was also down there and she told me she’d tracked it on http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/ so she knew exactly when it would be there.

  3. Shannon, thank you for that link to the website…I was wishing there was a way to know what time…we were watching TV and kept swiveling our heads!!!! YIKES. It was so slow.
