    About 25 protesters with the Kachemak Bay Conservation Society and the Eyak Preservation Council greet the USS Hopper as she arrived at the Deep Water Dock on the Homer Spit about noon Saturday, April 29, 2017. A crowd of about 200 people greeted the Arleigh-Burke class destroyer on the beach as it arrived in Alaska and about 200 more greeted the ship at the Deep Water Dock. A minus 4.6 low tide at 11:37 a.m. and the wrong dock face prevented Hopper from docking at the Deep Water Dock as planned, and she was to attempt docking later in the afternoon.
