Winter projects:

After a whirlwind spring shipyard at Port Townsend and completing projects for a USCG Fishing Vessel Safety inspection we departed Port Angeles, Washington for King Cove, Alaska packing salmon along the Gulf of Alaska side and Bering Sea sides of the Alaska Peninsula. The vessel is now docked in Washington State for winter repairs and refitting.
