Updated Weather Statement for the Winter King Tournament
March 23, 2024, 6:00 AM
The Winter King Tournament Committee met Saturday Morning to discuss the latest weather updates. Our statement is as follows:
Looking closer at the Marine Forecast for the key fishing areas of Kachemak Bay, we see that the forecast is within the threshold for our weather parameters, so we have decided to move forward with the tournament today.
Individuals will need to make a decision based upon their boat and experience. If you wish to cancel your registration, send an email to wkt@homeralaska.org by 9 AM and it will be processed later today.
Please use caution as you may way in and out of the harbor as easterly winds will make that area more challenging to navigate.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as the safety of our anglers is our highest priority.
