Return to main M.V. North Star Gallery page.

Richard Griffith (L), Vice President of Operations of Totem Ocean Trailer Express, Inc. (TOTE), and Jim Scott, Vice President of Marketing and Business Affairs of General Dynamics NASSCO (NASSCO), pose at the keel-laying ceremony for the M. V. North Star, the second of two ORCA-class roll-on/roll-off trailerships being built for TOTE's Tacoma-to-Anchorage service. Griffith drove in a wedge that signified the fit-up of the ship’s first keel blocks and then welded his initials onto a steel plate that will become a permanent part of the ship.
