Revision as of 06:19, 25 May 2013

Morning

  • To the Edmonds ferry dock - 30 minutes, then 30 minute crossing (bold indicates 7:50 ferry)
  • Kingston Ferry dock to geohash - 15 minutes

Possible geohash arrivals - 6:20, 7:05, 7:55, 8:35, 9:35

  • Geohash to Bainbridge ferry - 15 minutes, then 35 minute crossing
  • Seattle Ferry dock to Baseball - 20 minutes
Valid ferries to arrive by 11:00 - 9:35, 8:45

Evening

  • Baseball to Seattle Ferry dock - 20 minutes, then 35 minute crossing
  • Bainbridge ferry dock to geohash - 15 minutes

Possible geohash arrivals - 4:35, 5:25, 6:20, 7:20, 8:00

  • 15 minutes to either ferry after the hash
Possible Kingston departures - 5:30, 6:10, 7:00, 7:45, 8:20, 9:10, 9:40, 11:05
Possible Bainbridge departures - 5:30, 6:30, 7:10, 8:10, 8:55, 9:45, 10:30, Midnight

Expense

The charge for both ferries is the same.

$ 8.70 for bicycle and rider outbound, no charge inbound
$13.25 for car and driver, charged each way

Bike geohash

I concur it would be a good bike hash, but as I have to work, impossible for me. If things went *very* quickly at baseball (roughly 5-10% of these tournament games) I could be on the 3:45 boat and arrive at 4:35 -- but arriving at 5:25 is really much more likely. --Thomcat (talk) 14:31, 24 May 2013 (EDT)

5:25 is fine, or even 6:20 or whenever it was. But later wouldn't be so good... should we say 5:25?
Best I can do is "time approximate after baseball", but will try for it. Will text an update once I'm at the ferry dock. This will be my first geohashing day hash. Be sure to bring your towel! --Thomcat (talk) 14:47, 24 May 2013 (EDT)
