Seattle and the Puget Sound area has a long maritime and naval history, and it’s no surprise that it’s one of our top-visited cities to gCaptain.

With some of the world’s top naval architect firms located within the “Emerald City”, nearby bustling shipyards such as Vigor Industrial and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, and the Port of Seattle, opportunities exist for those interested in a maritime career.

Penny LeGate from the Seattle Channel tells us how the maritime industry is booming in Seattle and how you can get in on the action on the water.

Several larger warships are visible (from below): USS Missouri (BB-63), USS Saint Paul (CA-73)(?), USS Hornet (CVS-12), USS Rochester (CA-124), USS Bennington (CVS-20), and USS New Jersey (BB-62). The carrier in background is (most probably) USS Bon Homme Richard (CVA-31). US Navy Photo.
