Welcome to Bell Harbor!
Interested in a multi that's efficient enough to be conquered
during a quick lunchtime sprint? This one's for you, since you'll
be able to collect all the clues and the final cache within a very
limited area.
And an intriguing area it is...yet another bit of unexpected
Seattle artwork to enjoy, this colorful fountain is found at the
Bell Harbor Marina area near the waterfront.
No need for additional waypoints! The above coordinates will get
you to the fountain, and then everything else will be within a few
paces.
Final cache coordinates are at
47 36.abc
122 20.def
Clues as follows:
1. (number of benches at the nearby picnic table) x 2 =a
2. (number of tail fin panels in the fish) / 2 =b
3. (number of letters in the first word of the warning at the
fountain) / 2=c
4. (total number of letters in the name of the Port of Seattle
Commissioner memorialized in the nearby plaque) - 2 =d
5. (number of nearby drinking fountains) - 1=e
6. (sum of the numbers of the address on the door of the Marina
Office) -2=f
Outstanding work by rodgowdy for the very early
FTF!

We liked this fountain and we were thrilled that all the clues were so close together. Found the cache on the first try. My second grade math skills have finally paid off. Thanks for bringing us here.

2nd try for this one, must have had one of the answers wrong last time. I was honing in on the co-ords this time when some fellow cachers came up to talk. we chatted while the nearby muggle obstructed the cache. Once the muggle left, so did my fellow cachers so i could make the grab. TFTH!

Had fun with this quick multi! After we completed it, we went into the nearby restaurant, where we had a wonderful lunch! As we were finishing our lunch, we noticed another cacher outside working on this multi ... unfortunately for there, there was a muggle right where the final was! After finishing lunch, we headed off to greet our fellow cacher ... who turned out to be researchgrrl. As we were talking, the muggle finally left, enabling her to make the grab. TFTC!
