Hi guys. Here is my old Monterey built in Sausalito CA 1918 by Menotti Pasquinucci. Currently powered by a Perkins 4.108 she does 6kts and burns a half gallon an hour.

It never looked that nice when commercial fishing.
When I fished the was a Monterey with the original Hicks 1 cylinder gas engine. In flat water you could see every time the engine fired. There'd be a surge then the boat would slow slightly until the next fire.
This style was also built in the Sacramento delta. Before all the dams, there was a thriving salmon gillnet fishery in the delta. But it was dead by 1960. So all the Montereys were rigged for ocean trolling. The first salmon cannery on the West Coast was in Sacramento on the Yolo side of the river.
