The City of Anacortes and Friends of the Anacortes Library support regularly scheduled presentations, which are hosted by a variety of organizations. These informative and entertaining presentations are open to the public and take place in the meeting room at Anacortes Library, 1220 – 10th Street.
The May 9th 2:30 pm presentation is one you won’t want to miss. In this presentation, Mike Beemer will share his first-hand experiences sailing through the legendary Northwest Passage, one of the most remote and challenging routes on the planet. Mike served as crew and engineer aboard the research and education vessel r/v One Ocean during the ambitious circumnavigation of the Americas known as the Around-the-Americas Expedition. R/V One Ocean, with her crew of 5, departed Anacortes on May 3, 2025, and will be returning back to the Port of Anacortes after completing their expedition.
Come learn more about the challenges the crew faced and what it’s like to transit the Northwest Passage!
