Trader in Waiting
Coastal Transportation's 1963-built freighter Coastal Trader is seen in the Ballard Locks, awaiting her freedom so that she may end her voyage from Alaska at the company's pier on Salmon Bay.
Originally built in the Netherlands, she entered service under the name San Jose. From there she has been modified on several occasions, to the point where she virtually bears no resemblance to her original configuration. In addition to these changes, her name has been altered on even more occasions; between San Jose and Coastal Trader her name history consists of: Clara, Chalkis, Jennifer, Lago Izabal, and Sunmar Sky.
