description: Boats, Barnacles and Crabgrass is a story about the livelihood of a tugboat man on Puget Sound in the middle of the 20th century. The salty environment creates a life that begins with a smile, some blisters and the genius needed for survival. Working with a crew on his tug boat, caring for his family, maintaining the boat, and the business of moving timber from forest to mill on the waters of Puget Sound require keen observation of a continually changing environment, as well as a love for the work and a willingness to do hard work.
