The purpose of the Society as stated in the Constitution is to encourage the building and sailing of Friendship Sloops, and to provide a medium for owners and friends to meet and enjoy each other around a common interest. The formation of the Society was actively promoted by Bernard MacKenzie of Scituate, Massachusetts, owner of Voyager registered as #1 in the roster. The 1961 Sloop Yearbook lists 22 members. Six craft participated in the first race. Sloops now registering with the Society total 283 with the greatest growth occurring in the 1970’s with the addition of 50 fiberglass sloops. Social and racing events were held in Friendship until 1984 but diverted to Boothbay Harbor to 1985 when the need to accommodate our much enlarged fleet became apparent. Society plans were augmented by a stopover and social events at the Maine Maritime Museum at Bath and participation in Friendship Day at Friendship. In 1995, the opportunity arose to move the Annual Homecoming to Rockland, Maine where the waterfront facilities provided the ability to have all the participating sloops tie to the town’s waterfront floats, and a chance to be together as a fleet. This venue provides the chance for skippers, crews, friends, and the public to socialize easier. Sloops located south of Cape Cod participate in the New London activities, also in July. Sloops to the East of Rockland can participate in the Southwest Harbor rendezvous held the Saturday before the sloops gather in Rockland. The long standing racing series in Marblehead is held yearly at the Corinthian Yacht Club in August. In recent years it has become obvious that we have much in common with the Maine Maritime Museum and have become closely involved with it. Our earliest efforts were, and continue to be, the preservation of records and sloop design information. By storing such records at Bath they become available to all as references year-round in a convenient location. We have already found that this cooperative arrangement is advantageous to both the Society and the Museum. Those interested in Friendship Sloops are urged to take advantage of this reference material. Please address correspondence to: Friendship Sloop Society Carole Wojcik, Membership Secretary 347 Lincoln Street Norwell, MA 02061 E-mail: [email protected] - 3 - ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE FRIENDSHIP SLOOP Evolved from the small centerboard sloop of the late 1800’s. Often built by owners during the winter and used inshore for lobstering and as a general purpose carriers for farm produce. By 1900 thirty to forty foot deep-draft sloops predominated and were used in the offshore fisheries and as carriers for fish and lobster processing plants. Beginning about 1900 auxiliary motors were installed in sloops and by 1920 power boats doomed the sloops for commercial use. Many of the unused sloops were converted to party boats or modified for use by yachtsmen. An accurate physical description of a Friendship is impossible due to variations introduced by builders. In general terms the craft is gaff rigged, has a clipper bow, a mast equal to the length on deck and stepped well forward, a full length keel and either inside or outside ballast. Newer sloops tend to have shorter spars, less beam and less sail area than older designs. Note that sloop lengths listed in this report are “on-deck” and do not include overhangs. Early builders of Friendships were the Carters, Collamores, McLains, Priors and Morses, all Muscongus Bay residents. Builders of the 1920 to 1960 period include W. Scott Carter, Winfield and Douglas Lash of Friendship, Philip Nichols of Round Pond and Warren Gannett of Scituate. - 4 - HISTORIC SLOOPS Friendship Yearbook References 1963 Pg 9: Chandleer, Hiawatha Pg 11: Briganza, Champion, Jenny Hooper, Lottie, Martha E., Mary C, Mogul, Myrtle E, Mystic Belle, Nettie, Paul Revere, Pg 12: Cake-Walk, Lottie May, Mamie E McLain, Maude Grandeur 1964 Pg 33: North Star, Wawenock Pg 35: Duffer 1965 Pg 25: Susannah Pg 35: Whipoorwill Pg 47: St Paul 1966 Pg 12: Mystic Belle, Ralph A, Wilbur Morse Pg 26: Hustler Pg 39: Little Andre Pg 45: Annie Margie Pg 51: Admiral Dewey, Alice May, Gladys, Hattie Lawry, Vigilan 1967 Pg 21: Lottie May, Truant Pg 37: Clara Benner, Foster D, Nettie Pendleton Pg 39: Addie Lee, Alert, Alice, Cap Am Pg 41: Lucy Anne 1968 Pg 27: Pegoty, Sarah E 1969 Pg 61: Susannah 1970 Pg 67: Capt.

Later additions were Class C for “near replicas” and Class D for “replicas other than wood”. Obviously these divisions were

    Welcome Welcome to the eighth annual Friendship Sloop Days. During the spring of 1961, plans were hastily made for a race that was to be a homecoming for Friendship Sloops. Little did we realize that we were grabbing a bear by the tail. With our eighth regatta coming up shortly, we know what enthusiasm and love there is for these boats. Our first year was a one1 day, one race affair, but so many sloops travelled so many miles to join in tht. fun, it was decided in order to make it worthwhile for them to travel so far, three days should be set aside for racing. This has worked out well, and everyone seems happy with the arrangement. Thanks to a competent Race Committee, the race itself has been one of our lesser problems. Accommodating the crowds of people who want to see these boats from shore or watch them race from other boats has been quite an undertaking for a small fishing village of 800 people. Such problems as feed- ing up to 5,000 people, and parking their cars seemed insurmountable, but thanks to the veracity of "many handsJmake light work," the impossible was easily accomplished. Outdoor meals were served, banquets prepared, park- ing lots set up, a taxi service arranged,; and innumerable other facilities pro- Dedication — vided to help make things run smoothly; The aspect of all this that strikes most people first, is the fact that no individuals profit from any of this.

    DEDICATION is dedicated to the town of Friendship. His dedication to the town is what brought about the sloop races. Other men had the idea but it was Herald who brought it to fruition. None of the existing organizations or committees in the town wanted to tackle such a tremendous undertaking, so almost single-handedly, Herald set up a new organization to promote this tremendous idea. Thus the Friendship Sloop Society was born. The first year was difficult. It was not easy to solicit help because people thought it couldn't be done. With great determination and dedica- tion, Herald set to work, writing letters and news releases; setting up committees and organizing work groups; arranging for parking and police DEDICATION — help — a million and one things to be done, and Herald saw to it Herald Jones — without whom this whole thing would they were done and done well. never have started. \ more appropriate word would be difficult to find!

  • The Eastern Shore in Robert De Gast's Wake Kristen L. Greenaway
    The Eastern Shore in Robert de Gast’s Wake Kristen L. Greenaway Faculty Advisor: Kent Wicker Graduate Liberal Studies February 28, 2017 This project was submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate Liberal Studies Program in the Graduate School of Duke University. Copyright by Kristen L. Greenaway 2017 Abstract When any space becomes familiar, it becomes a place. Thus, place is a uniquely personal concept. This project began with a passion to explore this place I now call home—the Eastern Shore—and find a way to best define that sense of place. Evoked by one specific text, Western Wind Eastern Shore: A Sailing Cruise around the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia (1975), written and photographed by Robert de Gast, I discovered the means to achieve both goals: follow in his wake, by circumnavigating the Eastern Shore by boat; and to capture that experience via writing a personal essay, including photographs, of the places we visited—just as de Gast did. Through this process, I discover that sense of place cannot be easily defined except through being conscious of one’s experiences as one inhabits or moves through a range of natural, built and social environments. Putting myself on a boat, with particular companions, on a planned route, provided me with a range of such experiences, a narrative for making sense of them, and the focus necessary for that consciousness. In performing my own engagement with place, I found I was able to create my own personal definition of place in relation to the Eastern Shore.

Juhataja: Peedu Kass Kirjutaja: Malle Hunt 1. Mälestasime leinaseisakuga meie seast lahkunud nõukoja liiget Ain Eidastit. 2. Vastasime terminoloogi küsimustele. Pikem selgitus terminitele port ja harbour Peeter Veegen: Meil Tallinnas on "Port of Tallinn" administratiiv-juriidiline ettevõte, mille koosseisus mitu väiksemat sadamat, mida võime tõlkida "harbour" (Paljassaare Harbour, Old Harbour, Paldiski Harbour). Ajalooliselt on pigemini kujunenud nii, et Harbour on varjumis- ja seismise koht laevadele, millel võib olla erinevaid funktsioone (nt. Miinisadam, Lennusadam, Hüdrograafiasadam jne.) Ehk ka "Last harbour" - viimne varjupaik. Port on seevastu kauba käitlemise, lastimise-lossimise, reisijate teenendamise koht- teiste sõnadega ühendus maa ja mere vahel (ka arvutil on mitu "porti" ühenduseks maailmaga). Merekaubavedudel kasutame mõisted "Port of call", "Port of destination" Vene keelest leiame analoogiana gavanj = harbour, port = port Eesti keeles on meil mõlemal juhul sadam, nii et neid kattuvaid mõisteid võime kasutada nii ja naa, aga kontekstist lähtuvalt võiks siiski tõlkes ajaloolist tausta arvestada. Madli Vitismann: - "port" on enam ettevõte, terminalide kogum ja muu lastimisega seotu - sadamaettevõtted Port of Tallinn ja Ports of Stockholm (samuti mitut sadamat koondav ettevõte). Või Paldiski Northern Port kui omaette sadamaettevõte. - "harbour" on pigem sadam kui konkreetne sadamabassein, sildumiskoht jm, nt Old City harbour Tallinna Sadama koosseisus ja Kapellskär Stockholmi Sadamate koosseisus - nende kodulehel on rubriik "Ship in harbour" http://www.stockholmshamnar.se/en/ . Ka rootsi keeles on üks vaste sõnale "sadam" - "hamn".
