SALMON TENDER

Print size: 20 1/4" x 17"

This is a print shows the workings of a salmon tender with a fish pump unloading a seiner. The deck crewmen are at the sorting table while the cooks take weights, and the skippers discuss the events of the day.

The equipment shown includes the fish pump and hoses, sorting table, dewatering box, chute, engine and generator, and all the usual engine room and below-decks stuff.

Tom Crestodina, an Alaskan fisherman, began making cutaway drawings in 2011 to connect with his young son, Franio, while he was out at sea.
