    Chuck,

    I was checking out the UW's collection of Asahel Curtis pics and found this. Do you have it already?

    Ed, I have seen it , but don't have that one. That was a great ferry. Went along at 18 knots. Chuck

        Nope, It sure did not ! That's is only one of many problem the state will not talk about . There are all kinds of other defects that the state will not talk about also. So what do they do ? ....They build 2 more with all of the same defects. After they built the Chetzmoka they found out when they dock it the rubrail was so slim around the ferry they broke some of the windows out. So the state welded 4 pipes along the 4 corners of the sides and that ONLY cost $663K extra to do. Quite a few of the Todd workers can't figure out why they are building them the way they are. Chuck
