31 October 1912, The Friday Harbor Journal, "The KLATAWA, Capt. Jakle, took a shipment of apples and other produce to Victoria, BC. last week." 

Captain William Jakle of Friday Harbor, WA., hired Delbert E. Hoffman to build the above tug KLATAWA when Hoffman was working a few feet south of the Shaw Island Cannery at the steamer landing along Harney Channel,  San Juan Archipelago, WA.
