San Diego Tuna Boats

Seiner Legacy with its chopper aboard . Beautiful seiner owned originally by Manuel Silva and built by Martinac Shipyard in 1982. Please share your photos with us so we can share them and make people smile in these tough times [email protected]

Kevin, one of our best followers sends in his memories of his family boat the Spartan & Lococco brothers fishing albacore. Along with his father the legendary Anthony Madruga.  Thanks Kevin

Another one of my favorite boats, Mariner built by Martinac in 1973. And sadly not very many photos of this seiner around. I could use a few if you have them ? Please share your photos with us at [email protected]

So looks like we have a area of school fish. They may need a air traffic controller to direct traffic. Share your photos please at [email protected]

Seiner Connie Jean built way back in 1966 by Martinac Shipyard. One of the last seiners to fish out of San Diego and I’m pretty sure no one predicted that one. Seriously I could really use some photos come on do something nice. [email protected]

When your out to Sea most of the time there’s nobody to help. Kathleen towing in a broken down sail boat with its passengers. I believe they took them to Cabo San Lucas. I could only imagine how many days of fishing they lost, but as I learned from a great skipper you always do the right thing. Thanks to Mike Collette for sharing this photo. Please we could use help with pictures , send them to [email protected]

Thanks to Mike Hodgson for sending in this photo of G Street Pier in the 70s. Unknown seiner working on its net with the Jeannine in background. Share your pictures at [email protected]

Wonderful seiner built by Campbells shipyard in San Diego the Chiriqui I . I absolutely loved this seiner along with its company boats the Portobello and King Oscar . Great color and all were beautiful just another set of boats I wish I had more photos of. Anyone out there have any connections with these seiners and can come up with photos it would be appreciated . [email protected]

Bold Contender , definitely in my top 5 favorite seiners. Unfortunately I don’t have many photos of her. I actually have people post that they have pictures but they never send them in . So I will keep asking if you have any pictures of the Bold contender can you help me out ? [email protected]
