|  The Henry R. Hinckley Company - as Manset Boat Yard - Coast Guard Boats on the Old Shore Southwest Harbor Public Library Description: This photograph was taken before the Manset shore was filled in. – According to Ralph Warren Stanley (1929-2021), the White boat hauled up on shore in front of the William Spurling Newman house at 102 Shore Road, Map 17 – Lot 100 – was probably built by Leslie “Les” M. Rice (1883-1966) on Great Cranberry Island for William “Uncle Jimmy” Doane Stanley (1855-1950). She was built as a double ender. Someone bought her and put a square stern on her. Work was slow at Hinckleys for awhile so Bill Dunham (Wilfred Manson Dunham (1918-2001) and Lewis Tapley (Lewis Merton Tapley (1916-1985) bought her and went fishing, though not for long. Work picked up at the Hinckley yard soon afterward. The vessel was then bought by Abner W. Lunt (1908-1975), then she was bought by Luther C. Faulkingham (1901-1993) of Prospect Harbor, where she was the last time Ralph saw her. The wharf building with the false front was the building that Francis “Frank” Thompson Chalmers Sr. (1893-1985), F. Dwight Perkins (1902-1981) and Merton S. Alley (1904-1985) had a car dealership in. Almon Frank Ramsdell Sr’s (1873-1946) garage was there later. Hinckley may have owned the building when this picture was taken. James “Jim” M. Willis (1919-2006) later ran “The Boathouse” there.

|  Bonaventure - Production Southwest Harbor Public Library Description: Photos taken in 1941 and 1942. The following comes from interviews with Ralph Warren Stanley between 2009 and 2013. The stern post was from an old elm tree on Carrie Joyce’s lawn. She sold the tree to Bink Sargent for $100. Carrie thought she was rich, as, at that time, she was getting an old age pension of $30 a month. She hired a car and got Ralph Stanley’s grandmother, Celestia “Lessie” Gertrude (Dix) Robinson, Mrs. Ralph Judson Robinson (1875-1961), to go shopping in Bangor with her. Carrie got a blister on her heel from walking around Bangor. Bink paid Harvard Gilley and Jack Ramsdell $15 and a pint of rum to cut the tree down. Henry Dunbar was running the mill at Southwest Boat at the time and he said that they sawed that tree into logs and lumber and used every bit of it. Carrie E. (Bunker) Joyce (1863-1962), Mrs. Joseph Joyce Lennox Ledyard "Bink" Sargent (1916-1989) Jack Ramsdell Harvard N. Gilley (1915-2006) Henry E.

|  Sewanhaka Southwest Harbor Public Library Description: Built in Lubec as a sardine carrier and rebuilt at Southwest Boat Corporation as the first purse seiner in Maine. Photos 1257-1 and 1257-2 shown Sewanhaka after being rebuilt. Photos 3361 and 2262 show her before. “The Canadian fishermen had developed the purse seining industry in Canadian waters and were getting substantial amounts of herring during the winter. Carroll Peacock followed the advice of one of his carrier captains, Andrew Martin, and decided to get in on it. He sent the carrier, “Sewanhaka” to Southwest Harbor to be rigged up as a purse seiner. The first few attempts with the purse seine were failures because the boat was too small, so they decided to re-build her. The next year the “Sewanhaka” was sent to Wagstaff & Hatfield boat yard in Port Greville, N.S. to be built over. When she was finished, she was an 85’ seiner/carrier that could carry 135 hogsheads in her three holds…The “Sewanhaka” was the first purse seiner rigged for the herring fishery on the East Coast of the United States.” - Canned: A History of the Sardine Industry by John Gilman pp. 221-222. Build date – 1910 Gross tons - 73 Net tons – 40 Length – 74’ Beam – 20.5’ Depth – 8.5’ Crew – Captain Andrew Martin [show more] | |
