Well I’m not sure what to say. These pictures sent to me by my good friend Igor from Marco. This is the Aquarius in Ghana. Owned by the Dasilva family in its San Diego days. It was such a big part of my family’s life with my father and uncle both fishing on it for years. It was a beautiful seiner. [email protected]
Hello! I think the Aquarius is the tuna boat our landlord & friend Eddie Silva was Chief Engineer on in San Diego. My family was invited to go out on the boat when they tested the nets in 1972ish. Later on when they were going to unload in San Pedro I got to go with Eddies daughter on the trip. Her & I stayed in the captains room. The paneling on his cabin’s walls cost $30,000. I remember the food was great. Thanks for the pictures!
