Small Boat Harbor Sees Big Improvement

The Seward Small boat harbor is busy place these days, with dozens of skiffs, some as short as 8 feet, as well as larger fishing vessels massed along the floats.
 The Seward small boat harbor Association has been instrumental in bringing about many of the much needed improvements, the most nota ble being the driving of new piling to provide berths for the larger craft.
 The City Council also had a hand in the improvement project as they made available the nec- essary funds for the improvement program.
 Two new mercury vapor lamps now light the dock area and fresh water and loading zone are other conveniences which are available to the patrons of the small boat harbor.
 Under the watchful eye of the harbor master, Mark Walker, the floats have been tied together and tie up regulations posted, the beach cleaned up and police regulations placed in effect.
 The District Engineers have also had hand in the Improvements project in that they provided funds this past year to raise the level of the north breakwater. Under contract with the Fades Brothers the breakwater was raised feet by bringing large pieces of rock from Rugged Island.
 The recent session of Congress approved an additional amount of money for work on the harbor in the sum of S81,000. These funds will be used for a new set of floats and on extension of the south breakwater so that the harbor will be better protected. When completed this final project will give Seward one of the finest small boat harbors on the peninsula.

to extend the ! annual deadline

those making final payments on
