BREMERTON, Wash. (AP) — The Port of Bremerton is hoping to keep its biggest tenant from leaving.
The Kitsap Sun reports that talks are underway between the port and Safe Boats International, and they could result in the port building a new or bigger facility for the company.
Safe Boats makes security boats and hopes to double its work force to about 600. The problem is that it operates in cramped facilities at the Olympic View Industrial Park.
Rep. Norm Dicks tells the newspaper that he’s met with the company’s new ownership and he’s hopeful they’ll stay.
