  • Ballard, W.H.
  • 1950c.
Description:
There are two A boats moored with crews on board. Each has a rowboat tied to them and the crews are working with the sails. The Northeast Harbor Fleet dock and clubhouse are visible in the background. Ralph Stanley said the boat in the background is grounded out. Ralph thinks that is the "Nevis" and his father is on board. He thinks there is a close-up of the photograph. Maine Maritime Museum at Bath has a copy of that picture and Ralph has a copy hanging on the wall at his home. [show more]

Black Pearl (Rhodes 19)
Mount Desert Island Historical Society
Description:
Paul Stubing said this is a photograph of a Rhodes 19 sailboat named "Black Pearl". This photo appears to have been taken from the Manset shore because the cape on Greenings Island is in the background. The Rhodes 19 has her sails up and she is alongside a float. Her sail # is 1012. There is a whaler tied to the head of the float and there are several rowboats overturned on the float. Moving towards the foreground, you see two bullseyes tied to the float. Each bullseye has its sails on but lowered. There is a male standing in the stern of one, looking at the Rhodes. This docking area seems to be what is now called Manset Yacht Service, formerly known as The Boathouse. Hinckley's dock is in the background. [show more]

Fishing Boats Tied Up At Beal's Wharf
Mount Desert Island Historical Society
Description:
Paul Stubing said Ballard used a telephoto lense on a 4x5 Kodak and added he didn't use telephoto again. The schooner "Rhode Island" is closest to Beal's. Then there are at least 13 large fishing boats, sardine carriers, tied up to the floats and/or rafted together. There is some type of harbor buoy in the foreground which looks like a "bell" buoy. In the background there are wharves and docks. Ralph Stanley said the scow by the lookout for Beal's had a house on it which is where Lawrence Newman stored his salt pollock. They would sell the pollock to the stores in town. [show more]

Beached Boat in a Southwest Harbor Cove
Mount Desert Island Historical Society
Description:
This is the fifth photograph in a series of six depicting the practice of beaching boats for maintenance in a group. Paul Stubing indicated that this group was a "big Club" which you had to be invited into or born into. In this picture the boat with hull id# 1K140 is visible. There is a man painting the bow. He is holding a paint brush and a can of paint. Ralph Stanley thinks that this boat is Paul Faulkingham's and he is the person painting the bow. [show more]
