The Fish on Fridays series is a collaboration between Gloucester photographers Kathy Chapman and Marty Luster. Look for various aspects of Gloucester’s centuries-old fishing industry highlighted here on Fridays.
Halloween on Gloucester Harbor
Grim Reaper’s iron dredge assembly broke loose and tipped over the side of the vessel. During the incoming tide she got caught under the cement dock and took on water. After a few high tides she took on enough water to sink. The distress call for Grim Reaper came into the Coast Guard on Halloween. They said, “you just can’t make these things up!”.
TMC Services Inc. was sub-contracted by the Boston Coast Guard to drain the oil and gasoline tanks and clean up any spillage.

Thanks. It reminds me of the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest where Davy Jones’ ship, the Flying Dutchman emerges from the sea.
