Anecdotes
Wes Sampson states that "I use it for aquaculture and dive salvage. I recall the " Nathen E Stuart" the tug that sank in Seaforth Channel up by Bella Bella. The Cefer Raider was used as the dive salvage boat. It was a interesting job. One thing I can say in the 4 years of owning her, she's bullet proof. Been caught in some nasty weather and this vesseltakes it like a real champ.
