For over 110 years, O’Hara Corporation has withstood the test of time operating fishing vessels across both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Francis J. O’Hara began building his sailing fleet in 1903 starting in Boston, Massachusetts; after four generations, the process continues. From setting a seine net off the Coast of Maine for herring, participating in the scallop fishery out of New Bedford, Mass, fish processing operations in China, operating factory processing boats in the Pacific Northwest, and even a marina in Maine, O’Hara has diversified into a multinational family business.

The heart of O’Hara Corporation surrounds our catcher processor vessels fishing in the Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, and Gulf of Alaska. Our vessels catch flounder, Atka mackerel, Pacific Ocean perch, cod, pollock, among others. With a current home port of Seattle, Washington, the Araho (194’/59m), Alaska Spirit (204’/62m), Constellation (165’/50m), Defender (120’/37m) and her sister ship Enterprise (120’/37m) catch, process, and freeze their catch at sea. Our flagship vessel, Araho, is the newest addition to the Alaska groundfish fleet. Our five fishing vessels operate in one of the most sustainable fishing industries in the world. O’Hara Corporation will continue to strive for the best quality groundfish product we can offer our worldwide customers.

Maine is still the roots for the O’Hara Corporation. In Rockland, we have diversified into a full-service marina, operating a 50 Ton lift, the largest inside storage complex in the state, a boat hauling operation, and year round marine service. Our Rockland Maine facility, where the main office and marina is located, has state of the art office space for rent along the waterfront to tie in with the growth of Main Street’s galleries, restaurants, and shops.
