Description: 

Repairing the net during weekend layups was the job of the crew, who took great pride in the condition of their boats and nets.  Comradery and teamwork was shared among the Huna boats and crews.  During those years seining was the only way of life the seine crews.   In this image the crew of the Vagabond Queen work in unison at a common task.
