Shortly
after Ron
Marlett was assigned to the USCGC Winnebago, he took this picture of
the cutter tied up to Pier 12 in Honolulu Harbor. The Winnebago
was
having engine room repairs done before she departed for Ocean Station
Victor. To the right of Pier 12 is Nimitz Highway. Years later in 1994,
the entire area was redesigned and the warehouse on Pier 12 was torn
down. The area is now called the Aloha Tower Marketplace which is
considered a tourist spot for visitors. The revitalization project
included a free standing Aloha Tower, Hawaii Maritime Center, and the
historic ship Falls of Clyde.
