Sitka now a tender port?

[STEVE-O]

I'm asking here instead of the roll call so more people can respond.

   We were docked in Sitka last year but our Ovation docs show we'll be tendering in May 2019. Any clue why???

(We were on A smaller ship last year)

We have been in Sitka with two ships.  One was docked outside of town and the other tendered so it may also be space limited.  The dock area was not large.

I assume, because Ovation is the largest ship to go there, it might have to tender because the pier isn't large enough to accommodate it.

As said possible because size of ship. Over the yrs I've taken cruises where one Cruise we didn't Tender, next Cruise same ship and port had to Tender.
