This peaceful setting took place in the early 1900s on the Siletz River and shows the transfer of rafting binders from the Go-Getter to the Sea Foam. At the logging site in the upper reaches of the Siletz River, where the water was shallow and the river narrowed, the small tug Sea Foam picked up cribs of logs and towed them to this point. Then, when the appropriate number of cribs were accumulated, the larger tug would tow them on to the C.D. Johnson Lumber Company mill in Toledo, Oregon.

These tugs were kept on the run supplying part of the logs needed to cut the 250,000 board feet of lumber manufactured by the mill each day. After towing the cribs downstream for pickup, the Sea Foam would haul mail, supplies, and equipment back to the loggers at the Pacific Spruce Company camp (owners of C.D. Johnson Lumber Company) at their up-river site.
