Welcome.

The Alaska Commercial Fishermen's Memorial is dedicated to the men and women who have given their lives to the Alaska commercial fishing industry- those whose time was long, and those whose lives were all too short.

It demonstrates support for the commercial fishing industry by individuals, families, and businesses; it salutes the economic and social importance of fishing within the State of Alaska; it provides a quiet place for reflection and remembrance of those who have died, and serves as the location of the annual Blessing of the Fleet and Reading of the Names on the first Saturday morning in May, to which all are invited.

Next Event.

The next Blessing of the Fleet and Reading of Names will be held at 10:00 AM on the first Saturday in May at the Memorial. The ceremony is always the first Saturday in May. It will be broadcast on VHF channel 10. All are invited to attend.
