Just another day in the 70s down at the Embarcadero. Some net work going on love the old school corks , if I were to take a shot I would say this could be the Cherly Marie or Diana C ? Just a guess . [email protected]

Classic old school photo of the men stacking net at Embarcadero, I’m guessing looking at the seiner in background this is late 60s early 70s. [email protected]

Broadway Pier in the early 70s with the Mary Antoinette and Sea Quest . And a Navy ship on North side of Pier , good old days when it was still allowed. [email protected]

This is a photo of my friend Abe Romero sitting in the galley of the Elizabeth CJ, he was a Chief in the fleet for a long time.   I got a phone call from Abe today and glad to hear he was recently released from the Hospital and is doing well.  If you know Abe send him some prayers.
