* This post is in collaboration with Freedom Boat Club of Puget Sound. All opinions are my own. One of the best parts of summer, is being out on a boat. Some of the most scenic views of the Puget Sound can only be seen from a vessel on the water. I have never owned a boat. Every year when summertime arrives, I'm wishing I did! When you travel to a waterside destination: boating is a great way to discover highlights of the area.
