Here are some pics from Knotical Art, a booth at Crafted in San Pedro, and Utro's, a burger and beer restaurant next to the fisherman's wharf in San Pedro.
Crafted is a cool place to go to find gourmet food items, handmade jewelry, and assorted crafts. I found a cool terrarium with black sand that I added some mini tikis to. http://www.craftedportla.com

Gus Lopez works on a tugboat and learned how to tie knots while going through training at sea. He makes really cool oval rope mats and other assorted knot art like knot boards, nets, monkey fists, etc. http://www.knoticalart.com

Knotical Art:

Light fixture.

Utro's is a family owned and run restaurant. The owner is a retired longshoreman. They close pretty early so call first.

Bahooka wasn't the only place with ship chain tables. This is actually in a storage area.

View from the patio.

The fish sculpture has nautical bric-a-brac in it.

Of course the USS Iowa, SS Lane Victory and the Maritime Museum in San Pedro are full of nautical history too and all worth a visit.
