Sailing Back to Bristol Bay the Historic Journey of Restored Double-Ender Libby #76 from Homer Back to Naknek - Tim Troll
Tim Troll is the Executive Director of the Bristol Bay Heritage Land Trust, a non-profit he helped start in Dillingham in 2000. In 2022 he completed a journey, many years in the making, to sail a restored 1936 Bristol Bay commercial fishing sailboat from Homer back to its historic home in Naknek. That same year, with help from partners, foundations, and many donors, the Land Trust raised 20 million dollars to protect 44,000 acres of critical salmon habitat on Lake Illiamna. The land trust now owns or holds conservation easements on 58,400 acres in Bristol Bay and has facilitated the protection of another 21,320 acres in the Wood-Tikchik State Park.
