Hiring Chamberlain as well?
Interesting concept.
Why not?
What about Larson?

From The Daily Astorian: Port Unanimously Selects Tillamook's Crider
By CASSANDRA PROFITA - The Daily Astorian
The Port of Astoria Commission voted unanimously today to offer the Port's permanent executive director position to former Port of Tillamook Bay director Jack Crider of Lincoln City.
Ron Larsen, who has held the interim executive director position since Peter Gearin was fired last year, applied for the permanent position.
If Crider takes the job, Larsen will return to his former job as the Port's director of operations, as per his contract.
All five commissioners agreed Crider is the best choice because of his 15 years at the Port of Tillamook Bay, his extensive list of contacts in the world of Oregon ports and his ability to start work immediately.
The commissioners also agreed on their second choice, Dakota Chamberlain, a project manager at the Port of Seattle. However, they said he would need more time to adapt to the Port of Astoria while Crider could hit the ground running.
They said the fourth candidate, Lee Hutchins of Chicago, had more experience working with large-scale operations and would be better suited for a port with a bigger budget and more support staff. ......For Complete Story Clisk On Title Above
