• I'm always on the hunt for good Maine cruising guides. O'Chang comics is my latest fav.
  • Wooden Nickel is a hoot, great read!
    • My favorite. Matinicus' is written by a sailor, a good read too.
      • This is one of my favorite photos of a Stonington lobsterman.
        • Tom... totally off subject... the deck of that dock...
          • Gene, That's a buyers float
            • So not a dock per se, but more of a boat in of itself?
              • More of a floating lobster pound with a hold that allows water to circulate freely to keep the lobsters alive
                • That's right. That floating lobster pound was accessed from a hinging ramp.
                  • Sorry guys, just not familiar with "Lobster Pounds" was just amazed at the deck height over water...
      • Anything by Ruth Moore and Elizabeth Ogilvie are Maine must read
  • While Burt and I is fiction, Maine dry humor is (was) real
    • Oops... should be Bert and I
