ARAHO

The 120 foot stern trawler ARAHO was built at Gamage Shipbuilding, South Bristol, Maine, and launched in the spring of 1979 . With a steel hull, she was the largest trawler built at a Maine shipyard since the 1930's. Francis J. O'Hara & Sons of Rockland, Maine, was the owner. This picture shows the size of the boat's unique Kort System nozzle compared with Lin Gamage, shipyard manager. The nozzle propelled and steered the boat.
