Time will be given more audience participation and sharing of their own stories and tips.

What is Going on in the North Pacific? Closures, Climate Change or Catastrophe?

3:00 PM - 3:45 PM ➜ The Helm

The North Pacific fishing industry has been hit with a devastating blow by the closure of all opilio snow, red king crab, and blue king crab seasons for 2022 – 2023. The Gulf of Alaska cod fishery was mostly closed in 2020 when the population suddenly dropped as a result of an extreme marine heat wave. Groundfish have moved farther north in warm, low-ice years. Salmon are of keen concern with warming and acidification. The future is uncertain.

Alaska fishermen are experiencing changes in our fisheries due to ocean warming and acidification. But the good news is there are ways to take action: we know steeply reducing carbon emissions is a central part of the solution – along with protecting natural habitats that sequester carbon, keeping it out of the atmosphere, and removing carbon from the atmosphere. What policies and technologies are emerging to meet the challenge? Are they fishery friendly? How can the seafood industry be part of the solution? What do you want to be “for”? The first step is to get closer to where the action is. This session will be an overview of policies both underway and under discussion. Speakers will include policy specialists, NOAA scientists, and fishermen doing positive things.

No Seat at the Table : U.S. Commercial Fishing and Offshore Wind

12:45 PM - 1:45 PM ➜ The Helm

While the offshore wind industry is planning for new wind farms across the U.S., the commercial fishing industry is pushing for answers to understand how it will affect their livelihood. Commercial fishing is a vital industry keeping fresh fish on family’s tables. Attendees will hear from some of the folks on the front lines fighting for a seat at the table in the offshore wind discussions in order to protect both the fisheries and the fishermen’s livelihoods.

‘America the Beautiful’ Conservation Initiative and the Commercial Fishing Industry

2:00 PM - 2:45 PM ➜ The Helm

The Biden Administration’s America the Beautiful Initiative, which seeks to conserve 30 percent of US lands and waters by the end of the decade, has the potential to impact US commercial fisheries in many ways. Some view the initiative as a threat to their businesses or the imposition of marine protected areas that can shut harvesters out. Others view the effort’s elevation of Indigenous voices and community-supported approaches to conservation as long overdue and part of a strategy to address fishery resource declines while continuing to allow fishing. Come hear from policy experts who regularly engage on America the Beautiful & 30×30 to learn about and discuss how the initiative is developing and how to get involved.

U.S. Coast Guard Presents: Crimes at Sea

3:00 PM - 3:45 PM ➜ The Helm

CRAB CRASH

With a virtually complete shutdown of Bering Sea crab fishing at hand, fishermen, and Alaska communities sought an expedited fishery disaster declaration the federal government.

The emergency is felt acutely on St. Paul Island, where the largely Aleut community of about 400 live on an economy dependent on the now-closing snow crab fishery.

“We’re predicting a 90 percent loss from two years ago and 85 percent of revenue from last year, sRay Melovidov, chief operating officer of the Central Bering Sea Fishermen’s Association based in St. Paul, said in mid-October.

Other revenue streams come in from pollock and cod fishing, but crabbing carries the freight for St. Paul. The money pays for fully funded preschool programs, home heating aid for residents, and community-wide broadband internet access among others said Melovidov, who serves on the city council.

CLOSED

Revenue from the big boats help maintain a local halibut fleet of 15 boats and about 80 crewmembers, a subsidy to buy their catch at prices competitive with other ports, said Melovidov.

St. Paul and other fishing communities reeled with the Oct. 10 announcement from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game that the 2022-2023 crab seasons would close after grim survey results.

An Oct. 18 letter to Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy, from Alaska Bering Sea Crabbers and other industry and community advocates, made the case for a U.S. Department of Commerce disaster finding. The new request should be tagged onto an existing plea for the Bristol Bay red king crab fishery season of 2021-2022, the advocates say.

“Because the 2022/2023 Bristol Bay red king crab and Bering Sea snow crab fisheries are a complete closure and there is no final data to wait on for a determination, we ask that the Governor request that the Secretary of Commerce expedite the decision on these fisheries plus the 2021/2022 Bristol Bay red king crab request from last year,” the letter states. “Combined, these fisheries total a loss in ex-vessel value of approximately $202 million.”

Total revenue losses are estimated at 100

percent for the closure of both Bristol Bay red king crab and for Bering Sea snow crab from 2022/2023, totaling an estimated $151 million in lost ex-vessel value, according to the request. More recent data, paired with pending 2021/2022 Bristol Bay red king crab, bring estimated losses to a total $202 million, the letter states.

“The Bering Sea snow crab fishery was closed for the first time in U.S. history of the fishery with this year’s 2022/2023 crab fishing season,” the letter says. “And last year, the snow crab total allowable catch (TAC) was unexpectedly reduced by 88 percent from the previous year. It is clear this fishery will meet the threshold for a disaster due to the complete closure this year.”

In a joint statement, St. Paul city and fishing business leaders laid out the peril facing theirs and other communities

“Saint Paul Island’s economy is approximately 90 percent dependent on the snow crab fishery. The activities associated with the harvesting and delivery of crab to the Trident Seafoods shoreside plant for processing is the primary source of municipal taxes and local revenues, underpins other fishery and business activities such as the local halibut fishery, and sustains the harbor and

“To make matters worse, the BBRKC (Bristol Bay red king crab) fishery – a portion of which is delivered and processed on Saint Paul Island in the fall months – will remain closed for a second year in a row.”

In an average year, the City of St. Paul collects about $2.7 million in fisheries taxes. With the shutdown, it’s anticipated only $200,000 will come in.

“Without the taxes derived from crab processing our municipal government will struggle to support essential municipal services such as public safety, road maintenance, and emergency medical services,” said Saint Paul Island Mayor Jacob Merculief. “We may need to cut municipal staff.”

The non-profi t Central Bering Sea Fishermen’s Association is the local Community Development Quota (CDQ) group for Saint Paul Island. The association is allocated 20 percent of the total Bering Sea snow crab that is set aside for the CDQ program. The non-profi t entity is one of the six groups that together make up the CDQ program, established in 1992 by federal statute to manage Bering Sea fisheries assets to promote social and economic development in the communities they serve.

its two crab vessels, CBSFA has made substantial additional investments in crab assets, both processing and harvesting shares in the rationalized crab management program in the Bering Sea, and is highly dependent on revenues from snow crab, Bristol Bay red king crab and other crab species,” according to the statement.

The Central Bering group had already sold one of three crab boats last year amid the ongoing stock decline, and managed careful use of its savings through the 2021-2022 season.

“We’ve done successfully in the past year. Our budget was pretty tight going into 2022,” said Melovidov. With money in the bank, there is some flexibility for the short term.

The prospect of hardship is alarming but St. Paul can pull through, local advocates say.

“I love St. Paul and want to spend my whole life here,” said Melovidov, who has two young children, “and hope there is a future for them here.”

Despite the crab stocks situation, there is opportunity and ways to diversify too, he says.

“We’re in the middle of the richest commercial fisheries in the world,” said Melovidov. Work to build more fishing infrastructure – and assistance from regulators on wastewater requirements for fish processing – could add to the community’s economic base, he said.

“God has given us a privileged location amidst some of the richest commercial fisheries in the world,” said Mayor Merculief. “We are a resilient community and have been through crises before. With some help, I hope that my people will be able to continue making a living from the resources of the Bering Sea as we have done for thousands of years.”

The community statement echoes the Alaska Bering Sea Crabbers Association position that the North Pacific Fishery Management Council and other federal and state authorities must do more, specifically in protecting crab habitat and reducing bycatch from other fisheries.

“Managers and scientists must further identify and protect the centers of crab abundance, and support meaningful rebuilding measures such as habitat protections for king crab. Stakeholders have advocated for Council consideration of management that specifically protects molting and mating crab from fishing impacts adjusts the minimum bycatch limit at low snow crab abundance, and estimates unobserved fishing mortality using best available information.”

WHAT DOES THE PRESENT AND FUTURE OF XTRATUF LOOK LIKE AS PART OF ROCKY BRANDS?

Thanks to a history that stems from the 1960s, the XTRATUF brand is one extremely familiar to fishermen across the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. The company has won countless awards and been called out as “pretty much the standard in Alaska,” highlighting the durability of the XTRATUF brand and products. However, a major shift happened with both in 2021 when the company was acquired by Rocky Brands, Inc.

This acquisition was unlike many that have come to define the modern M&E marketplace, which are solely focused on an outlook for growth and profit. While the deal nearly doubled the size of Rocky Brands’ annual revenues, the company has a history that stretches back to a shoe factory that was set up in 1932, highlighting Rocky Brands’ commitment to creating tough, comfortable products that are utilized in extreme conditions of all types. But how will that commitment impact the growth of XTRATUF across the commercial fishing segment? Will it mean we’ll see the brand expand into regions beyond the Pacific Northwest and Alaska?

To find out, we connected with Mike Roundhouse, VP and General Manager of XTRATUF | Rocky Brands Inc. His nearly two decades of experience at Rocky Brands made him uniquely qualified to discuss some of the details associated with the acquisition, how customer feedback impacts the development of XTRATUF products, what the future holds for the XTRATUF brand and much more.

Jeremiah Karpowicz: Can you give us some background around the Rocky Brands company and products? What about this background made the XTRATUF brand one that was especially appealing to the company?

Mike Roundhouse: The company got started by the Brooks brothers in the 1930s because of their desire to both wear and use comfortable outdoor products. Our current CEO is 4th generation of the family, which shows what that commitment to footwear looks like across the eras.

We were the first company to do an allcamoufl age hunting boot so we kind of created the hunting boot market. Those boots were the first

time people weren’t just wearing brown leather boots in those environments. They introduced elements like insulation and waterproofing which caused the entire market to explode. It cemented our name in the outdoor industry and helped us understand what it means to work with partners and create products that the consumer needs. All of it is function-based.

With all of the brands that we’ve acquired over the years, and what we’ve done under Rocky Brands, it’s always been about function-based footwear. That’s why the acquisition of XTRATUF was so perfect for us because it lines up with what we’ve done in other markets.

What else can you tell us about the acquisition? Was it more about the fit, the opportunity, or something else?

I mentioned that our current CEO, Jason Brooks, is 4th generation, and he has an incredible vision for the company. In 2021, all our brands were on an upward trajectory and we were debt free, which put us in a position where we could look at acquisitions. When the opportunity to acquire Muck Boots from Honeywell International came up, he was all over it, because one of the things he always had on his wish list was that brand. It’s one of the best brand names in the industry.Under Armour long johns and short pants, plus a hooded shirt to stay comfortable without sweating.

Whatever the fishery or time of year, fishermen around the coasts are experts at finding the right

gear to keep themselves comfortable and improve their performance, and all have certain things that make it just a little easier.

As we got into conversation with Honeywell, we learned there could also be an opportunity with XTRATUF and it was something we jumped on. XTRATUF has a similar brand recognition, but to us what really resonated was the authenticity of those products. We knew that it was a true anchor in the commercial fishing industry because those users know it actually does what they need it to. It’s the Alaskan sneaker. You can’t fake that authenticity.

That combination of these incredible brands made the acquisition something that we couldn’t pass up.

When it comes to growth potential that XTRATUF might offer into adjacent categories, is this more about an expansion of existing products to commercial fishermen outside of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, or the creation of brand new gear?

What I want National Fisherman readers to know is that I’m committed to them as consumers and users of our existing XTRATUF products. Right now, I’m not worried about new products. I’m worried about making sure that when they go shopping for gear they can find the sizes and products they need. We’ve got to make sure we’re taking care of the customers we already have.

Are we going to continue to develop ankle deck boots? Yes, and we’re doing great with those.

We’ve also got some new silhouettes, all of which are a lot of fun. There are different color palettes we get to play with. But the bread and butter of this brand is commercial fishing and our legacy collection. So we’re going to do everything we can to make sure retailers have those shoes when they need them.

How does that connect to the retail support and expanded distribution you have on a practical level?

Our support comes from experience. We always try to think of our end users and our retailers as partners. And if we’re not doing what’s best for them we’re not being a good partner. Our distribution network is set up to ship shoes, whether it’s singles, doubles, case packs or whatever else. We’re totally focused on shipping footwear, which sounds simple, but is distinct from many of our competitors. That way of thinking is what’s at the core of our support.

Being able to think about both your customers and your retailers in that same vein is really important, because I think some companies fall into just selling for volume or just selling to stores, and that changes your perspective as far as the culture. We’re working across the supply chain to make sure that we keep especially popular styles in stock so that retailers and customers can get them when they need them.

That goes back to understanding the needs of this audience: We understand that some of these commercial fishing folks are only making the trip down to buy gear once or twice a year. We need to make sure that when they make that trek they’re going to be able to get what they need.

That reminds me of something we talked about at PME 2021, which related to

how XTRATUF would now able to work with a “real footwear company” thanks to the acquisition and take the brand to the next level. What does that next level mean for you?

It goes back to that concept of us not only truly knowing the footwear industry but also being totally committed to it. We are set up to create and deliver shoes in a way the previous owners and even our competitors are not similarly driven. They’re focused on doing so many other different things.

We don’t have the financial power of a bigger corporation, but that can be a good thing, because we’re not as hung up in the bureaucracy. Our CEO always jokes that we’re too small to be big but too big to be small. But that allows us to navigate somewhere between those extremes, so that if a bigger partner needs a certain color in the next season, we can turn it around without getting caught up in bureaucracy but also having the capacity to deliver. We’re footwear people, we know how to navigate every side of this industry.

And is that connected to the concept of taking the brand to the next level?

It’s more about how all of that highlights the commitment we’ve made to this industry. We’re doing all we can to make sure that this brand and these customers have what they need. We could not be more committed to the XTRATUF brand and community going forward.

We’re not doing anything to look pretty or to sell for fashion. That doesn’t work. Can we do some linings with certain partners like the Salmon Sisters to create different patterns on the inside of the boot? Absolutely. Because that’s just kind of a fun thing we do every season. But that’s secondary to the core functionality of our products, which is what we’re focused on as footwear people.

RUNNING WITH THE JET SET

New Bristol Bay gillnetters are opening the door to competition in the jet propulsion industry

When a typical Bristol Bay gillnetter goes screaming out to an opening and sets its gear in water where a seagull can almost stand, chances are about 50-50 that it’s being propelled by a Hamilton jet. Hamilton has dominated the industry for years, and for many good reasons, but as Hamilton’s sales rep Matt Gordy, says: “There’s a lot of good competition out there.”

For Bristol Bay boats, Hamilton is meeting the competition with the HTX30. “That’s our new tapered impeller, mixed-flow jet.” The HTX30 features a conical wear ring so that the impeller tip tolerance can be reset as it wears down.

“We just put a pair on a Beaver Valley boat,” says Gordy, who notes that it may be the last from the builder. “It’s got our new AVX electronic control system, with all the bells and whistles. It’s got the Mouseboat/3-axis controller, it’s got the handheld remote for the aft deck, so it’s going to be a very advanced bay boat.”

The handheld control comes with a 9-meter umbilical that can plug into a bulkhead fi tting and give the skipper complete control including lateral movement.

“It does the math for you, so those complex

maneuvers where you would be dropping a bucket and raising a bucket and then steering to counter to create that lateral movement — our Mouseboat or joystick does that for you.”

When it comes to service, Gordy believes Hamilton has the best. “We have the largest spare parts inventory in the world,” he says. “And we have our own foundries and are making our own parts from raw materials, which is pretty

unique.”

One of Hamilton’s service managers, Colin Davis, recalls being in Bristol Bay just prior to the opening of salmon season, when a customer came to him with a serious problem.

“I was walking through the boatyard, meeting people, and this guy came and his thrust bearing was failing. I went to see the boat, and the bearing was growling. I arranged for all the parts to get GoldStreaked to Anchorage. I picked them up and flew out to King Salmon and was able to rebuild his front end there in time for him to go fishing, all in all it was three days.”

The Finnish marine jet builder Alamarin has been around for decades but is a relative newcomer to the Bristol Bay fishery, having made an entry with its Omega 42 and Omega 37 jets.

“We put an Omega 42 on a boat built in Homer, the Evo,” says John Miele, Alamarin sales manager for Asia and the Pacific. “The owner wanted a jet with the power to get up on step with 20,000 pounds, to get those fish to the tender faster.”

The Omega 42 can handle up to 2,040 horsepower, and the Omega 37 can take up to 1,200 horsepower, and both feature Alamarin’s dual-angle shaft, as well as a conical impeller housing that can be shimmed as the impeller wears.

When it comes to competition, Alamarin is betting on service to attract new customers.

Alamarin entered the Bristol Bay jet market in 2019 with its high-thrust Omega 42 and Omega 37 water jets.

Naknek,” says Miele. “It

there won’t be any delays waiting for parts or service. No one wants to hear that a mechanic is flying up from Seattle.” In a fishery where some captains say

they’re losing $50,000 for every day they can’t fish, Alamarin could make waves.

Marine Jet Propulsion’s UltraJet is also growing its reputation in the Bristol Bay salmon fishery.

Fisherman and boatbuilder Tom Allioti prides himself in choosing only the best components for his boats. His company, NTG Fabrication, equipped their 2021 vessels, including the graphics wrapped Killer, with UltraJets.

“For 35 years, Marine Jet Power has been redefining the waterjet market with innovation and unsurpassed quality,” says MJP marketing manager, Kelsey Nemeth.

“Engineered and built in Sweden, MJP’s proven stainless steel, mixed-flow and aluminum, axial-flow waterjets are used in many diverse applications, including commercial fishing.”

According to Nemeth, the UltraJet is designed with low operating costs and ease of maintenance in mind.

“The team at MJP believes in a full-service approach,” says Nemeth. “From performance and efficiency to aftermarket support and service, MJP is a true marine propulsion partner.”

As Hamilton Jet’s Matt Gordy says, “there’s a lot of good competition out there,” and the primary beneficiaries will be the Bristol Bay fishermen.

LUCK OF THE IRISH

The rebuild of the Shenanegan took fourteen years, but it was worth the wait.

The Shenanegan came down the rails in 1971 as a fairly typical 45-foot salmon troller with a beam of 14.5 feet—it drew 5.5 feet. “She was a homemade job, made from a popular plan. But I don’t know who did it,” says owner Harry Allen. In the early 2000s Allen was fishing crab, albacore and spot prawn and wanted a bigger boat. He bought the Shenanegan in 2007. While Allen holds dual Irish and American citizenship — his mother comes from County Donegal in Ireland — he did not name the green and orange painted boat. “I didn’t have anything to do with the name,” he says. “It was the Shenanegan when I found it.”

He took the boat straight to Giddings Boatworks in Charleston, Oregon. “First thing I did was tear it apart and widen it,” he says. “I had a design from Bruce Culver to put a whale back on it, but we didn’t get that far. We kept finding things and the project got out of control.”

Allen limited the changes that first year to widening, lengthening, and re-powering. “We added 7 and a half feet. It’s 23 feet at the widest spot,” he says. “And we added 5 feet to the stern so it’s 50 feet overall.” At Giddings, which was still being operated by Don Giddings at the time, they did the sponson work old school style, as they say. They did not use CNC files generated from a CAD program.

“They didn’t have the plate precut,” says Allen. “They just put it up, marked it and cut it.”

With the engine room opened up and gutted, Allen had the main and auxiliary engines replaced with a John Deere 6081 and a John Deere 4045, respectively. “We re-powered again in 2013,” he says. “I put in a

400-hp, 9-liter, John Deere 6090 and a new 4045.”

The new engine has a Twin Disc gear turning a 2 ¾ -inch shaft at 2:1, with a 30-inch, 4-blade propeller.

“I don’t know the pitch, not much,” says Allen, who reports that the cruising speed of the Shenanegan is around 7 knots. The auxiliary runs a 36 gallon per minute hydraulic pump off the front end and the genset off the other.

The added space afforded by the lengthening and sponsons, allowed Allen to expand the tankage and fish hold. “We added four more fuel tanks,” says Allen, noting that the overall fuel capacity is now 3,200 gallons. “We put in a 700 gallon fresh water tank, and we opened up the stern to expand the fish hold. I have an 18-ton IMS refrigeration system that we

also put in that year. I freeze my tuna, but the crab and spot prawn I land live, so I use that to chill the water, and I have an aerator.”

Allen also added a false deck and a few other things that first year. “The false deck is drier,” he says. “It gets you up above the scuppers.”

While Allen points out that in the long run it would have been cheaper to do the entire project that year, but he wasn’t sure he would stay fishing. “At the time I thought I might move to Donegal,” says Allen. “I have a place there.” He’s also glad that he waited because he made changes to the original Bruce Culver design. “We never did the whaleback,” he says.

“Two years ago we put on the bulbous bow at Giddings, and that increased the speed and fuel efficiency. I get two days out of a tank instead of a day and a half.”

Allen, now 63 years old, finally went all-in on the Shenanegan in 2021. “I took it back to Giddings and we put on a new top house, a free standing mast, and raised the bulwarks forward,” he says.

Aside from the 2007 work, Ray Cox, the current owner of Giddings, has done all the work on the Shenanegan, beginning with a shelter deck added in 2009 to protect the crew working the block when crabbing and shrimping. Ray Cox added the bulb and did the latest work. Again, when it came to the steel work they did it all old school.

“We wanted to add 32 to 36 inches, and we just had to eyeball the angles,” says Allen. “On the stem,

by National Fisherman Due to the number of complex curves and of the fly bridge, Kyle Cox, the son of Ray, and owner of Tarheel Aluminum, built the Shenanegan’s new tophouse in place. Harry Allen wanted a bow that would roll water away rather than splash over onto the deck. He and Giddings owner Ray Cox raised the forward bulwarks by 32 to 36 inches and it did the trick.

you have to get that just right, if you go too much it doesn’t look good. But I’m happy with it. It does what I wanted it to do, which is the water rolls up and out away from the bow. Before, it was splashing up over, especially with the bulb. The deck’s a lot drier now.”

The raised bulwarks run aft about a third of the way aft, and required allen to add a top house. “I just did a drawing of what I wanted and Ray’s son Kyle built it.”

Kyle Cox, owner of Tarheel Aluminum bolted an aluminum flange to the existing fly bridge and started tacking aluminum to it. “You have to build in place on something like that, it’s almost like sculpture,” says Cox, who has been doing aluminum work for 20 years. “There’s so much going on for angles and curves, you would need to do some very sophisticated mapping of the footprint if you wanted to build it in the shop.”

Combining math, physics, and art, Cox put together the top house that Allen had imagined. “We kind of tacked everything in place,” he says. “Then we unbolted the flange and brought it back to the shop to do all the welding so we could have some nice clean welding.” Aluminum is trickery to weld than steel, Cox notes, and having the structure in the shop for the serious welding gave him better control of the quality of the final product. “If you can get out of the wind and the weather you can produce a better weld.”

Allen reports lot of boats are using this kind of top with the windows angled out all around. “You see it in Ireland,” he says. “It’s great, it give me a better view of the deck forward, so I can see my crew and what’s going on.”

The Shenanegan has four berths in the fo’c’sle and another in the original wheelhouse, and Allen usually takes three hands besides himself when crabbing. The original wheelhouse holds the galley. “It’s an old 1970s style galley,” says

Allen. “We might do something with it, make it more futuristic.”

At Giddings, Allen and Ray Cox also replaced the old stick mast with a free standing steel mast. “I have metal halide and sodium vapor lights,” says Allen, but they’re getting hard to get, so I put on LED deck lights.” Allen reports that some fishermen report issues with LED and tuna fishing. “They say the LED sends some kind of frequency through the hull that the tuna don’t like. But we’ll see this summer.”

The electronics package in the new top house includes a new Furuno radar. “It’s a solid-state Doppler radar, a Drs4D-NXT,” says Allen. “It can spot birds, for when we’re albacore fishing. As I get blinder I need that,” he says.

Considering that Bruce Culver’s original engineering involved considerable additions of steel above the deck, it also included some stability analysis. But Allen notes that having skipped the whaleback idea, the new design is considerably lighter, and well within the parameters of Culver’s earlier stability work.

With the completion of the latest work, Allen finally has the boat he’s been imagining and refining in his imagination for 14 years. “This boat’s always been a work in progress,” says Allen. “But there’s not much more you’d need to do. I did a lot of this work thinking about the resale value.”

With ample deck space, refrigeration, power and many upgrades, the Harry Allen has turned the Shenanegan into a well-functioning and versatile fishing machine that he plans to eventually sell and then retire to Ireland. “I fished there for 6 months in 2000,” he says. “I might try that again.”

Around the yards

The last week in September the Deliverance, a 58-foot steel pot-fishing boat out of Homer, Alaska, was due to be hauled at the Port of Toledo Shipyard in Toledo, Ore. Then it will be outfitted with, among other things, a new aluminum wheelhouse. The orig inal house is “worn, old and leaking like a pig,” says the Shipyard’s Mike Lee. The Deliverance was built back in the days when you bolted the wheelhouse to a steel coaming on the deck with an anticorrosive putty-like substance between the metals to prevent electrolysis. But over time electrolysis took over.

The new wheelhouse will again be aluminum and welded to the steel coaming, but with a Detacouple transition joint between the aluminum and steel to prevent electrolysis. That’s a pre-bonded bi-metal strip with steel on one side and aluminum on the other that’s been put on a press and then an explosive charge fuses the metals into each other.

For the 2022 fishing season, Rozema Boat Works delivered a pair of aluminum 32-foot Bristol Bay gillnetters and one aluminum 20foot seine skiff. For the coming 2023 season, the Mount Vernon, Wash., boatyard will be doing that and more.

The “more” is an aluminum 47-foot crab and prawn fishing boat that will be working Washington’s Puget Sound and Southeast Alaska.

A new feature for the Rozema 47-footer is a raised pilothouse matched up to a planing hull. “You step up off the deck three steps,” says company president Dirk Rozema, explaining how high the pilothouse is above the deck. That creates a larger than normal engine room beneath the pilothouse and better visibility from the pilothouse. “You get up higher and see the whole operation a lit tle easier. It’s the first time we’ve merged it with the planing-hull form.”

The Pacific Hunter is the newest boat to come out of Maritime Fabrications in La Conner, Wash. The fiberglass 46’ x 16’ hull was built by the Canadian boatbuilder Millennium Marine in Miramichi, New Brunswick, and finished off by Maritime Fabrications for a Westport, Wash., crabber. It has an 800-hp Volvo D13 for power.

This was the first time Maritime Fabrications had finished off a hull from the Canadian East Coast says Maritime Fabrications’ Isaac Oczkewicz. The work was completed in time for the Pacific Hunter to start crabbing in January.

“The owner liked (the boat) a lot,” says Oczkewicz. There were some uncomfortable sea conditions but he said, “it felt stable.”

Speaking of boats like the Pacific Hunter from East Coast boat builders, Oczkewicz says, “they have their advantages as far as ef ficiency and sea-keeping, but they don’t pack as much as our hulls do.”
