    Stars mark the location of unmanned-adrift paddlecraft reported to Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound personnel since the first of the month, July 24, 2018.

    Every unmanned-adrift paddlecraft is treated as a potential distress situation, however, when the craft is properly labelled the situation can often be quickly resolved with a phone call to the vessel owner, which minimizes personnel fatigue and negative impacts on crew readiness.
