Yap Seagull, Or better known as the Proud Heritage. Most memories for me of any seiner. Loved this seiner many trips to San Pedro with the greatest man i ever knew my father. That was after we got out of San Diego Bay ,y dad use to call 12 noon or 1 pm on a Sunday the Martini Crew all the sailboats and pleasure craft especially in Summer time. Later on he would leave for San Pedro at 9am just to make it easier . Send in your pictures with your memories to [email protected]

This is a old photo that a number of people have sent me. Im just going to take a shot and say they are the Jeanne Lou , Cindy Ann and the Rose Ann Marie , but thats just a guess. Looked to be anchored I’m guessing somewhere near Panama. Send in your pictures to [email protected]

This shot sent in from our great follower Baird Tewksbury , Stacie Antonette at 10th Avenue Terminal in San Diego. Stacie wasn’t painted this color until late in its san Diego days. so I’m guessing this was in early 80s. Looking at the crows nest at Campbells in the background I’m guessing this are the Gina Anne and the Caribe in background. Huge thanks again to Baird. Send your pictures to [email protected]
