Sometime during the height of the recent snowstorm, a rockstar sailor appeared on the Shilshole docks. They are seen here with Paul Baker and Suzette Connolly. The true identity is unknown at this time. The sunglasses were part of the wily veteran’s deception.
It has already been conjectured that it may be Carol Hasse escaping the peaceful climes of Port Townsend. Another theory has it that Russell Coutts was tired of the New Zealand summer and visiting as a break. Connolly and Baker aren’t talking.
It is suspected that another sailor traveling incognito, seen at left, is a bodyguard or assistant to the one with the sunglasses. He or she appears to be inebriated.
If you know who this rockstar is, please send it in. If there are further sightings, please snap a photograph and send it in. We will ascertain the true identity!
