Introduction On the Move Selecting Engines The Detail Sea Trial
The deal was struck with Seaboard Marine in September, but work wouldn't begin until November when they completed an existing repower job in their yard. On November 7th, 2000, BOSSEA left its homeport in Huntington Harbour for Channel Island Harbor in Oxnard where it would be hauled at Anacapa Shipyard. It was trucked from there to Seaboard Marine where it remained until the post-repower sea trial on March 15th, 2001.

That's over four months from start to finish, not counting the up-front planning. Some time was lost to poor weather, and some to the year-end holidays, but most of the time was used to complete the job.
Trucking to Seaboard Marine - This was a little scarey. The boat wasn't perfectly level on the trailer, and the trip required several twists and turns to avoid low hanging signal lights and power lines. Fortunately, it made it there safely.
