Afloat on the
Tide:
Wooden Dinghies, Prams, Skiffs and Other Rowboats
Photographer Nancy Rich
Thursday, February 4, 2010, 7 pm
$3 members, $5 nonmembers
Hull
Lifesaving Museum, 1117 Nantasket Avenue, Hull
781-925-5433,
hulllifesavingmuseum.org
Paired with quotations from great
thinkers, and the short story "Rowboat" from author
Peter H. Spectre, the photographs in Afloat on the
Tide offer a reflective journey through the
strikingly beautiful world of small wooden craft.
"No matter what condition a wooden dinghy is in,
it is always a classic. . . . Every photograph tells
its own story. Play a game and try to guess how each
boat in this book is used. Some dinghies transport
people while others carry goods. Some are for
leisure and others for commerce. But regardless of
its purpose, time spent in a dinghy is always
special. . ." -Gary Jobson
About the Authors:
Nancy Rich has been photographing the rowboats of
the Atlantic Coast for a decade. She has exhibited
her collection, Nor'eastern Dinghies, in numerous
galleries and shows in New England, and her
photographs appear in Gary Jobson's film Maine Built
Boats: Art and Soul.
Peter H. Spectre, a renowned writer with a lifelong
appreciation of the sea and its traditions, is the
former editor of WoodenBoat magazine and the current
editor of Maine Boats, Homes, and Harbors. He is the
author of A Mariner's Miscellany, and the annual
Mariner's Book of Days (Sheridan House).
