Sea trials. The tuna seiner, "Anne M," proceeded with sea trials in mid-September, 1969. She had a frozen fish capacity of 650-ton and was skippered by Captain Frank Souza. Built by Martinac Shipbuilding, the 1.5 million dollar vessel ran on a 20 cylinder 2800 h.p. diesel engine. She was completely carpeted in the living quarters of the skipper and 14-man crew and was equipped with air conditioning. The "Anne M" was named after the wife of the president of Bumble Bee Seafoods. Photograph ordered by J.M. Martinac Shipbuilding Corp. (TNT 8-3-69, D-11) TPL-9410
