M/V Sea Comber
Recognize her? Yep – that’s our KJ in her previous incarnation as a charter vessel in Alaska, prior to having her masts cut down. I was going through old documents today, as I’m putting together her history. It’s fun to look at the differences ~ the 2 Zodiacs up top, the enclosure on the aft deck, obviously the masts (ooh, I wish they hadn’t cut those down – I can just envision a crow’s nest up top for my cozy spot. Even SB thought that would be fun!).
Jeff, thanks for checking in. That confirms some of the stories I've heard about Dr. White. I'd love more info about her, if you remember any more details – shoot me an email at jamie at mvkatherinejane dot com of you have any more you'd like to share. Thanks again!
My grandfather, a retired SE Alaska fisherman and USFWS vessel Captain, brought the Sea Comber up from Long Beach CA for Dr. White to run as a moving dentist office through out SE Alaska in the 1970's. I remember visiting him in Long Beach harbor and staying on the boat…and seeing it ocassionally in SE Alaska where I grew up. It's great to see her in nice shape and well maintained.Jeff Johnson
