Looking for some information about a old tugboat located in Anacortes back in the 1960's or 70'.

Have you ever heard of the Beatrice Bear? Do you know if it still exists or the name of the family who owned it?

Appreciate any information you might have.

Enjoy your day and thank you,

Kreig McBride
