Fashion Blacksmith Inc., Crescent City CA
Fashion Blacksmith was started in the 1930s by Ted Long and is now owned and operated by his son Dale and grandson Ted: they specialize in conversions, with only the occasional new vessel. Their original yard was in Fort Dick: they moved to 2nd Street in Crescent City in the 1970s, later to Parkway Drive and finally to their present location at 121 Starfish Way, just west of Neptune Way: see the yard from the air on Google here.
