Good morning, James and yes, this is the “Cairdeas” and DVRP # JF18-006D. We are very familiar with this vessel and the Kitsap County Sheriff’s marine unit has also been notified. Plus, the Department of Ecology is also aware too. Please let us know if the vessels disposition changes and for now we are just monitoring till the vessel meets the definition of derelict and/or abandoned. Thanks for the report and enjoy your day.
It was moved from Tracyton to Phinney Bay by the Yacht club and someone started painting it. During the last wind storm it drug anchor and ended up close to shore at Sulphur Springs. After that must be when it was moved to Poulsbo. They’re playing cat and mouse with the DNR.
This vessel is now anchored on the NW side of Bainbridge Island, between the mouth of Manzanita Bay and NE Hidden Cove Rd. I think it arrived in July .

This ship was previously seen in the Hood Canal by Seabeck. Apparently someone has towed it into Dyes Inlet and left it by Tracyton beach.
It’s possible that it is the MV Cairdeas, but I haven’t been able to verify that yet. Here is a link to a pic and some info on the Cairdeas. https://www.flickr.com/photos/old_salt7/28474588697/in/photostream/
