There were 11 people on board — 10 passengers and a pilot — and everyone is alive … though one is said to be in critical condition.
Kenmore Air says all 11 were transported to local hospitals … and law enforcement says injuries ranged from head injuries to broken bones and cuts.
The seaplane took off at 4:30 PM from Lake Union in Seattle and went down at 5:15 PM in Shallow Bay.
The cause of the crash is unclear … and the FAA and NTSB are both investigating.
The Coast Guard and first responders from Washington and Canada carried out the successful rescue mission … as well as Good Samaritans with boats.
Kenmore Air says all of their Friday flights were canceled.
