Beautiful picture of the Marne K looks to be on a sea trial off the coast. Something about the color of this seiners along with the Granada, Portobello  , Chiriqui I just loved. Someone out there must have pictures they can share of these seiners. [email protected]

This is a great photo for so many reasons, first, The Antonina C tied up at the dock, but also in this  photo men were mending nets the way it always was at the Embarcadero. Of course I cant help but notice the old cars and no parking meters on the street . Good times , share your memories at [email protected]

The Marietta tied up at the fuel dock , which was pretty normal for the Zolezzi fleet who also owned this fuel dock . Along with the Mary Antoinette these two seiners owned by the Zolezzi Family were very consistent with short trips and full loads . [email protected]

Royal Pacific appears to be getting parts out to sea. The Tuna Fleet relied on each other for parts , fuel , and emergencys at Sea and if they were lucky they would receive mail from home . [email protected]
