Point Whitney is a public boat ramp in Jefferson County, Washington, on Dabob Bay. From here SeaStatus scores 6 waters: Dabob Bay, Jackson Cove, Quilcene Bay, Right Smart Cove, Hood Canal and Puget Sound and Hood Canal (Area 4 of 20).
The main water here is Puget Sound and Hood Canal (Area 4 of 20). Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 46125, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9445246, Whitney Point, Dabob Bay, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 1.3 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
