Description:
The ways at <NN> Cannery used to push fishing boats into the water in the spring after winter storage and pull boats back out in the fall for transfer to on-shore winter storage. This wooden structure was probably utilized around 1930s with a steam powered winch, and since fell into disrepair and had not been used for many years prior to the cannery's closure.
