Local fishing boat, captained by Hank Broulette, docked at the elevator which carried fish by bucket to dump in the Fish House.

In the 50's and 60's, Hoonah was known as home of the million dollar fleet for their skill, ability, success and how well they kept their boats.

Captained by Jim Marks, The Evolution was a family run boat, like many Hoonah boats were.

Bill Welsh was one of three sons of Robert and Jeanice Welsh. The Welsh family association with the cannery spanned approximately 20 years, beginning in the 1930s.

Approximately 20,000 fish could be held per scow.
