The Tuna Seiner Royal Pacific, cruising in The Pacific in the 1970’s . This seiner was built by Martinac in 1973 and has been renamed the Koorale , Its a very special seiner to me, due to its owner being a close friend of mine. Share your photos at [email protected] or on Twitter @sdtunaboats
This is one of my photos I took on a trip to 10th Avenue Terminal . The Seiners Mariner and The Gann Discoverer with The Azteca 2 in the background . I know The Mariner was originally the Constitution, I believe The Gann Discoverer was originally The Claire P . [email protected] or on Twitter @sdtunaboats

Im very sad to announce the passing of John Zolezzi . John was a big part of the fleet and owned the seiner, Mary Antoinette. Personally its a big loss for me, I really enjoyed talking to John on my walks past his house or when he saw me walking by, he always pulled over and we chatted. I got the opportunity today to speak to his Son,John (240) as many people know him by and he said “my dad treated everyone so nice”, and I couldn’t agree more . You will be missed my friend and the neighborhood will never be the same. My condolences to The Zolezzi Family.
