Hi, this may be a bit of an unusual topic, but I was hoping someone here could help me. I build model ships as a hobby and a few years ago while up in northern California, I saw a trolling boat that just caught my eye and took some pics of it. I recently started building a model of her from scratch, but the dimensions are mostly guessed and as most of my shipmodeling has been 1800's era ships and I know nothing about trolling. I was hoping someone could tell me if this is a salmon or tuna troller, Im assuming tuna being from Nor Cal. I have the basic hull dimensions done, but from the pics i took I cant really tell how wide the space is between the deckhouse and the bulkhead...looks to be about 2' maybe? There is also a structure on the deck, i dont recall if it was an opening for a hold or after looking at some other pics, if it is a slushbox? Im attaching a couple of pics and would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Cory

Just to clarify, Im just trying to get approximate measurements and trying to determine if the hold would open up into the boat or if there would be a cover over that or what it would look like from above.
Thanks for any help.
