We had a 37' fishing boat and would go around the Channel Islands to catch ling cod, sheepshead, and other rock fish. But my favorites are not rock fish at all. They are Mahi-Mahi or Thresher Shark. But alas, fishing around the islands is now off limits. Things are really changing. In high school I would go diving and find tons of abalone. By the time I was in my late 20's they were pretty much gone. Rock fish were always plentiful, now they are endangered. Now Mahi, are rare near so Cal. You need to go south of Mexico to find them anymore. My dad is long gone and so it seem are the fish Well I still enjoy sailing and sticking to an ocean theme..... Here is a ship that I got to sail on once. Name the ship and who it was built for. ID: 1190066 ·

No I take it you sailed out of her then home port in Southern California? Compound questions. I did sail on her out of Southern California (San Diego), but that was not her home port. Hint 1 She was the first ship built specifically for research. ID: 1190343 ·

The one I show is a ketch and was build in Denmark. From what I found the Seaman was built for SEA (The Sea Education Association) which is located at Woods Hole, but distinct from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Seems thars a lot going on at Woods Hole. Oh and Massachusetts was her home port until 1964. My ship and the Seaman probably spend a lot of time next to each other. (hint) ID: 1190582 ·
