Builder Harold Davis of Davis Boats in Paso Robles was fixing to leave on the Polaris Supreme.

"We're building and selling more diesels in our larger boats these days," he remarked. "We're making more pilot house models, especially. Even down here, it's nice to be able to get in out of the weather. It takes away the cold and the wet."

Davis was just back from "Salmon Getaway Weekend,"at Bodega Bay.
