Divers raise F/V’s Kupreanof, Leading Lady – spill contained but oyster sales shut down – Jakolof Bay

January 24, 2013 New England

Divers were able to raise the sunken fishing vessels, the F/V’s Kupreanof on Saturday and the Leading Lady Monday from Jakolof Bay, some four weeks after the boats went down in 48 inches of heavy snowfall.
