Port of calling:Washington's Port Townsend evolves from its role as gatekeeper of Puget Sound to a shipbuilder's haven

With its fire-engine-red hull and blue-tinged flames, the Indiana is one of Alaska's mostdistinct wooden seiners. Marty Mc-Callum bought the boat in 1988 as, in his words, "a derelict." The first season he fished the boat on Puget Sound's Salmon Banks, it leaked "voluminously" and required in-season refastening. Repairs did not stop there."The next year, in 1989, we did a major reconstruction on the boat," Mc-Callum says. "We completely rebuilt the hull — about 98 percent."
