R.I. yard builds a rugged stern ramp; Maine shop plugged with tuna boats

摘要

In mid-November, Rich Fuka and Steve Perkins, who make up Harbor-side Boat Repair in Point Judith, R.I., were getting close to completing a stern-ramp installation on a 55-footer. The Estrela Domar had been a shrimper and crabber operating out of St. John's, Newfoundland. Then Eric Lundvall bought her and tied her up at the Harborside Boat Repair dock to be outfitted with a stern ramp, before making a living as a groundfish boat.
