Another one of my Campbells collection. I really can’t say i remember seeing this seiner very much in San Diego, although it is a great looking seiner. Built in 1981 it has changed names a few times. Last name i had on it was the Granada. Please send in your pictures to sdtunaboats@cox.net .

Great Shot of the Sea Gem, picture taken in  Western Pacific compliments of John Gibson. Sea Gem had a great bridge with the lucky seven dice on it. Owned by Medeiros Family. Please send in your pictures to sdtunaboats@cox.net

One of my favorites the Portbello. Again from my Campbells collection, and its just ironic that its docked at Campbells in the shot. Portobello was definitely a top seiner in fleet . Im sure it had a few skippers but all i remember is Greg Chase. Send your pictures to sdtunaboats@cox.net
