This one from one of our great loyal followers.  Not sure exactly where photo was taken  Cape Finisterre unloading. This seiner was the Tifaimoana in its San Diego days. I personally don’t like the wrap around the crows nest. But just one mans opinion . Send in your pictures to sdtunaboats@cox.net

Another one of my favorite shots, i know i say that a lot. Because its my fathers pictures he took while aboard the Proud Heritage and there really isn’t very many shots of the good old Anne M. I use to think these little seiners weren’t very cool when all the new seiners were being built. Well now that I’m older i realize these seiners kicked ass.

One of my favorite looking designed seiners. Love the look of the San Diego Marine Seiners. Maybe because my father fished for years on the Proud Heritage. Launched in 1973 as the Theresa Ann this seiner has changed names a few times, I’m not sure its still the Osprey . Please send in your pictures to sdtunaboats@cox.net
