The 26-foot by 9-foot fully restored wooden vessel was used for salmon fishing more than 80 years ago. It still has the bright orange streak identifying it as cannery boat. The Anchorage Museum did the restoration work on Koggiung #5. It was scheduled to go into permanent storage there when Fred Anderson of the Bristol Bay Historical Society heard about it and decided to bring it home to his museum. It will join an older wooden sailboat in a collection there with plans to create an entire display of historic wooden fishing vessels. It took about two years of negotiations and planning to move the boat, but with Alaska Marine Lines' donation of barge transport, it is now back in its native waters and ready for all to enjoy.
