1938 no-nonsense classroom film New England Fishermen shows Gloucester, schooner, steam, and diesel trawlers
At the dawn of talkies, ERPI (Electrical Research Products Inc) sought to “bring the world to the classrooms” via 16mm A/V equipment and a catalog of films. ERPI was a subsidiary of AT&T and a forerunner of Encyclopedia Britannica Films.
They produced GLOUCESTER FISHERMEN (under 9 min) in 1938 with backing from Clark University. The film’s narrator was James Brill. There was also a 1938 film titled Shell-Fishing.

Here’s James Brill narrating and before the camera in the 1946 film: FROM DEMOCRACY TO DESPOTISM, 1946, Encyclopedia Britannica Films.

Fisherman Truck Series- Sal Sans
Sal owns the Janaya and Joseph. He likes his fishing bumper stickers, that’s for sure. Sal’s also a pretty laid back cat. Always in a good mood when he stops by to say hi.

Beautiful Industry Pamet Winch
Here is one of the winches that haul the trawl doors in on the Dragger Pamet. This winch is manufactured by Hawboldt Industries in Chester Nova Scotia, Canada. What is interesting and makes for a great winch is the galvanized steel that holds up well to the salt water as opposed to the old metal winches which wouldn’t hold up nearly as well to the salt water conditions that these winches operate in.

Mike Leary and Joe (Stoga) Scola Aboard The Dragger Pamet
Here is Joe (Stoga) Scola and Mike Leary, owner of the Dragger Pamet.
Peter Prybot had an interesting column in the Gloucester Daily Times featuring Stoga and Mike in the paper this weekend. Click this text for that article.
Look for an upcoming video featuring Stoga in which he gives us insight into the often heard but rarely understood saying on the VHF radio- “Who Killed The Bird?”

Dragger Pamet Door
This is one door out of a set of two which separate the net when it is set off of the stern of the trawler(dragger). The chains you see are attached to the cable wire which is released from the winch. Then the net is attached to the doors to get the spread needed to maximize the area of open net and snare as much fish as possible.

Northern Edge, York Maine Dragger
Possibly the cleanest dragger of all time. It looks like a pleasure boat it’s so clean. Video coming.

Wire Fishing Cable Used To Tow Nets
The cable wire is actually a bunch of smaller wires braided together to give it incredible strength. There’s something beautiful about this stuff up close that I never see as beautiful when it’s just sitting around the dock.

Matteo Russo’s Patriot Engine
This is the view looking down at The Patriot Engine. Matteo runs a GM in The Patriot and GM engines are usually painted green. Matteo painted his red because this particular model of GM engine is called a Screamin’ Demon.
