Tonight “Buying Alaska” – Features 3 Seldovia Properties
by Jenny Chissus
Have you had the opportunity to see our Seldovia on one of the newest episodes of“Buying Alaska” on Discovery’s Destination America channel? You can view the previews at the link above.
We have already had the pleasure to see John and Paulie Carluccio’s cabin (Uncharted Alaska – preview #5 on above link), which is one of Seldovia Property’s listings on Seldovia Bay that was featured in the episode on October 21st, 2012. Check out this video below to that first episode that featured Seldovia, Halibut Cove and Kasitsna Bay properties. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOrt1NyMysM?rel=0]
Tonight there will be an entire episode featuring floatplane accessible properties in the Seldovia area! In this episode, on November 25,2012, Buying Alaska is showing off two properties on the west side of Seldovia Bay and one on MacDonald Spit.
Working with the producers during the three days of filming was a great experience and this new show has been such fantastic exposure for Alaska, and now, Seldovia! Taking over 22 hours of film and editing down to 22 minutes will prove very interesting, as there is so much to see and so much to say! These three properties are beautiful, with amazing features and locations that highlight the beauty of our area, and I’m sure the show will spark the interest of many folks looking at Alaska! Following this link, you can view two of the three properties previews, The Isolated Property(11) and the Bay Property (12) – each have a 2 minute trailer.
Buying Alaska will air tonight on Destination America
6pm and 9pm on Channel 194 on Dish Network
Channel 286 on Direct TV.

Unscheduled Tusty Stop in Seldovia
by Jenny Chissus
The Tustumena has made an unscheduled stop in Seldovia this morning! After 4 lines broke free in Homer, due to high winds and rough seas, the MV Tustumena has retreated to the safety of our protected Seldovia Bay ferry dock. She arrived this morning around 9am and as it stands right now, she has plans to stay through until tomorrow morning.
I spoke with the City Manager Tim Dillon who stated that the Tusty is on its way to dry dock for the annual maintenance of the vessel. This is just a holding spot until it is safe to get underway again. The ship is down to its skeleton crew, so there is no chance of dining on the vessel while it is in port – that would have been great! Also, for those who have called to ask if they could get a ride back to Homer, that answer is “no” also, as the Tustumena will be going back to the shipyard. So, we say “adieu” to the Tusty until the 21st of April 2013! Next ship to come into our ferry terminal will be the Kennicott!
