Bristol Mariner, Crab Boat in Dutch Harbor, Alaska Magnet

The Bristol Mariner is a blue and white commercial crab fishing boat which is a part of the "Mariner" fleet of crab fishing vessels. Other mariner boats include the Nordic Mariner, the Western Mariner, the Arctic Mariner and the Pacific Mariner. All the crab boats have a heart on the bow with the boat's initials, flanked by a windswept motif which looks like wings. The Mariner boats all work out of the port of Dutch Harbor, Alaska.
