Textures, hull section on vessel YT809, a tug being built by Dakota Creek Industries in Anacortes.
Overcast skies made for nice, even light Friday morning at the Dakota Creek Shipyard. Progress is rapid on this vessel under construction, so I expect I will arrive one morning soon to see she is gone.
A worker at Dakota Creek Shipyard unhooks a cable from a plate as construction continues on a steel hull. I counted several welders working in the ribbing of the vessel.
