Paulie Walnuts Takes A Ride Through the Gloucester MA and Rockport Shoreline

If you’ve moved away I bet there are a whole lots of places you’ll recognize from this ride.
If You Ever Had a Doubt That Nat Geo Is Putting Serious Dinero Behind Wicked Tuna…
All You Have To Do Is Look at The Sick Gear They Are Using To Shoot It.
Listen, in the past 5 years with the incredible advances in camera technology every soccer mom in the universe thinks they are capable movie producers.
I can’t begin to tell you how many different production companies have come down to the docks pitching us on yet another idea for a reality show based on our dock and our lobstermen.
Most have their Canon Mark X with a Video shooting rig and all the L series lenses. They want you to sign your life away, work for peanuts for the first season and do everything but tell you that they are going to make you look like a complete jackass. But hey, you’ll be on TV so it’s all good. 99% of them are jokers.
Not the team from EvolveIMG, the team who shoots Wicked Tuna. They are the real deal and from this shot just inside the dogbar breakwater of the type of high tech gear they are using to shoot the next season of Wicked Tuna, you know this is a big budget, high quality outfit.
Thanks for the rock-solid-despite-crazy-waves memories, Cineflex. You are one smooth rig. #gearshot @evolveimg pic.twitter.com/sYLyTdf8Tp

Tribute To Gloucester from Mark Goettemann
Hi Joey,
The 16′ white skiff sailing among her big ocean-going schooner sisters in the Parade of Sails on Sunday was the latest addition to the Gloucester’s fleet of wooden watercraft. The boat is named the TRIBUTE II Rocky Neck (pun on II – 2 completely intended). She is a Montgomery Fish Boat from the chine down, my own lapstraked lines above. The rig is a pre-1960s Fish Boat rig. She is made of various eucalyptus (mahogany, red grandis, cumuru) and white oak, all solid, scarf jointed boards, no plywood.
I know she is just a drop in the bucket compared to the other grand vessels cutting through the harbor yesterday however, though it’s a big name for a little boat, the gesture of building this classic boat in the spirit and celebration of Gloucester boatbuilding heritage is one that all of us in Gloucester can appreciate.
Thanks to Joey for spreading the word.
She is at the dock behind my parent’s gallery on Rocky Neck, if anyone wants to see her up close, or just watch over Gloucester waters when the wind is up, you’ll surely see her chasing her big sisters out on the horizon…
