USS Nimitz

Mechanical issues are keeping the Nimitz in Everett a little longer.

While most of the USS Nimitz crew and families have relocated to Bremerton the Nimitz is stuck at Naval Station Everett while crews tend to a mechanical issue. Here’s the update from Kristin Ching at Naval Station Everett…

The aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68) delayed its transit from Naval Base Everett to Naval Base Kitsap Bremerton after discovering a maintenance issue.

The maintenance issue will take approximately one week to repair.

Nimitz is still scheduled to make a homeport shift to Naval Base Kitsap Bremerton and begin a planned incremental availability.

You can follow the progress of the Nimitz on their Facebook page.
