I Coded years ago, early 80's, for one fall with Randy Konrad, who owned the Helen T at that time. We spent an interesting night on my birthday, September 3, in Inian Cove. It sure was a fishy boat then. Great to see it looking so good.

To those looking for one heck of a good vessel, she is the one. I crewed on her longlining Gray Cod in Icy Straits when Pat Sullivan owned her. We fished and traveled in some serious November weather and she was a superb vessel. Fisherman and friend Charlie Tubbs (now up in fisherman's heaven) told me of the time and details when he helped originally build her in Juneau indicating she was designed and built for the Fairweather Grounds.
There is few greater things to see than the person(s) who have taken the measures to keep such a fine vessel going. Don't hesitate to plunk down the cash on her, she is worth far more than the asking price. I would without hesitation, trade or sell my 34' fiberglass troller, which has been a fine boat, any day, if it meant I could acquire her. Going from glass to wood you say? That says a lot about her.

I've seen quite a few pics of this boat and always wondered what she looks like forward of the wheelhouse on the inside.

Steve, what is the depth of the hull not including the keel? How much water does it draw with full fuel and usually ice heading out... or with good load of fish coming back? How much iced fish does she hold? Is it better to email you or try phoning you? Thanks!
