Captain's quarters. Surprisingly, this is not the luxurious living room of a contemporary home but living quarters found within the "Sea Royal," the 225-foot tuna seiner built by Tacoma Boatbuilding. An ornate white electric fireplace, large wooden bar with upholstered stools, red leather chairs and oversized stuffed Spanish decor sofa resting on rich, red wall-to-wall carpeting present a picture that is a far cry from former sterile ship conditions. The "Sea Royal" was launched on November 11, 1972, and was undergoing sea trials about the time of the above December 28th photograph. Color photograph ordered by Tacoma Boatbuilding.
