Home of the largest population of Northern Fur Seals, the St. Paul Island rookeries are where they go to pup. . . right where the Ocean Clipper lay. But not for long.

F/V Ocean Clipper Removal: Day 10
http://oceanclipper.blogspot.com/2010/04/day-10.html
Monday, April 26, 2010. Removal of the pieces with the highline continued all day. Many pieces have now been removed. All of the vessel is now cut. Only small connections remain so that the pieces can have the highline connected to it so that they do not fall in the wrong direction. The last of fuel tanks (starboard mid-section) was cut into and was dry. I think that more than 30% of the vessel is currently on the barge. Posted by MCA Foundation.
