Captain Erik [Tubby] Anfinson:

Erik started deck handing with his father Cliff Anfinson at age 19! He received his 100 ton license and started running the original Bass Tub when his father became ill. After his passing Erik bought the vessel from his mother, Lynn, and has now been running the vessel for 20 years. Erik always had a wish to own a 54 ft Westport. After 15 years of hard work he was finally able to purchase one, which became the rebirth of the Bass Tub Vessel. He purchased what was then known as the "Ghost Rider" from Longview, Washington. Erik has also worked for Alcatraz Cruises for 8 years running ferry boats. When he has a moment to relax he loves nothing more than being on the water with a fishing pole at his side.

Moose loves the water so much he got married on a boat to his beautiful wife Jenny.
