Gator was this a DFO boat or a commercial seiner? Would like some information on this as we're having our SFAC meeting on Thursday. Was not aware of any commercial salmon openings in Howe Sound. What date was this photo taken?

I think she's the Neocaligus, a DFO boat. She's been all over the Sound the last few days. Looks to me like she's been doing prawn spawner index counts, among other things.

Dorman, looks correct as found it here via AIS off south end of Keats a few minutes ago:
