I still have lots of these. If I were to spend money for a boat and lived in a place where I could walk to it every day, I’d get a fish tug. All boats today are within a three-minute walk of the market at Bodin Fisheries.
Let’s start with the 1938 Ruth, which has become a static display at the Bayfield Marine Museum, which–to my disappointment– was closed when I visited.
Noree Jo was built in 1948.
Let’s have a look from all angles.
Cassie-K is slightly older, a 1945 boat.
John R seems to have gone to the birds . . . She’s from 1942.
The smaller red-hulled boat beside John R gave no clue of her name.
