Hello all!
We are a young family from interior Alaska and have a goal of owning a trawler in the next five years or so. We have so much to learn and this forum seems like a good place to start! Our current boat is a 17 foot river boat we use to navigate the rivers and net chum salmon. The last few summers, we have spent time on a friend’s boat outside of Homer exploring the area and fishing. Those trips have cultivated a strong draw towards the ocean and we feel a trawler is the next step for our family. However, we are aware this is not something one pursues with no experience. We also realize there is an endless financial burden of everything that goes with boat ownership. Over the next five years, we intend to prepare ourselves as much as possible as we work towards our dream.
We are here to learn and look forward to all the wisdom and advice you all have to offer.
