Beautiful Industry- Herring Boat Sunlight Winches, originally uploaded by captjoe06.
It’s been nasty cold the last couple of days. Not that I have to tell any of you reading this if you’re from Gloucester. We’ve all been breaking out the heavy winter gear early and there has been ice on the floor in the morning which is not a good sign for the lobsters as when the water temperature drops to a certain level, they really slow down.

There is a whole lot of steel up high on this boat. To me it would seem top heavy, but honestly I’m no boat designer and I’m sure it’s safe as the boat has been around a while.

See all the hoses leading into the net reel? Those are hydraulic hoses which power it to turn.
