  • Grand Banks Dory
    Photo Essay: How to Build a Nova Scotian Grand Banks Dory By Jeff Spira Plans available at: http://SpiraInternational.com/ How to Build a Nova Scotian Grand Banks Dory By Jeff Spira In Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, throughout the 1800's the finest dories in the world were being built by two different boat builders. These craft served as fishing boats launched from the decks of schooners and fishing practically in the middle of the North Atlantic, year-round. This Nova Scotian was derived from the original Grand Banks fishing dories. You can launch these boats through the surf, keep going in weather that drives everyone else back to the beach, and load more into this boat than boats substantially larger. A better rough water pulling boat cannot be found anywhere. The boat shown in these photos was built by Kevin Power in 2017. Like all of the Spira International Ply on Frame boats, the frames are built first. The plans give you precise dimensions to build the frames The strongback is built next. It serves as a kind of jig to ensure the boat is straight and proportioned correctly. The plans detail this member as well. The stands may be built from any extra or scrap lumber you may have access to. The strongback also holds the elements up so that you can work on it at a comfortable height. The centers of the frames are cut with a notch for the keelson to be attached. Note that the frame cutouts are wider than the keelson. This leaves gaps on either side of the frames that become limber holes, that let water collect to the lowest point of the boat and make draining (with drain plugs) easier when the boat is out of the water or pumping the bilge when the boat is in the water.

Spira All Rights Expressly Reserved This e-book may be printed, copied and distributed freely so long as it is not altered in any way. Selecting a Boat to Build The Style of Boat For Your Needs Before you ever start building a boat, you should first consider what type of boat you want and/or need. I say and/ or, because a lot of people think they want a certain type of boat, due to current styles or some fanciful dream, when they actually should be considering an entirely different design. Let's discuss some of the basics of boat hulls so that you'll be able to look at a hull and figure out how it will perform. Displacement Hulls All boats operating at low speeds are displacement hulls. This includes planing hulls going slow. What defines a displacement hull is that the boat displaces the weight of water equal to the boat's weight (including the weight of the people and cargo inside.) Sailboats, canoes, kayaks, most dories, rowboats, trawlers, and cargo ships are all examples of displacement hulls. For a displacement hull to move through the water it must push water aside as it passes, then after it passes water comes back together to refill fill the space taken up by the hull.

  • From the Commodore ... Inside This Issue
    S S H S L L From The Commodore ... Wow, the dust is just starting to settle from this year’s Commodore’s Ball and Christy and I are almost recovered from the night. What a fun evening! Thank you to the Commodore’s Ball Committee that planned and executed another wonderful Ball: Karen the Commodore’s Ball Committee Chairperson along with Alison, Cindy, David, Amy, Angela and Christy. Also, my deep appreciation to Gale, knowing how my wife likes to talk, I cannot believe how well you kept the agenda moving along. You are truly the Master of Ceremony. Thank you also to my personal dessert makers: Karen, Amy, and Lori, the dessert table was absolutely amazing. I would also like to thank Frank for giving the invoca- tion and everyone who participated in the event or throughout the year taking part in the 50/50 raffle. I want to take a moment to mention the 50/50 raffle. It is the sole function of this raffle to assist with keeping the price of the ball reasonable so that everyone who wants to attend is able to. I am happy to report that the price of the ticket did not get raised this year and that we had 87 people in attendance. I also want to give a shout out to Therapeutic Re- habilitation and Warren Woods Tower, who made and donated the center pieces and the Commodore’s gift this year, which also helped keep costs to a minimum. I am excited to hear Karen’s report at the General Membership Meeting.

Durrenberger stresses the necessity to Dory Fishery' 'sheries in their broadest political and economic Raoul Andersen Memorial University of Newfoundland Introduction Newfoundland's banks or "deep sea" schooner and dory fishery was displaced by modern groundfish trawler operations in the mid-1950's. Yet its organization remains superficially understood and fragmentary described. This paper draws upon information from published and archival sources, especially those at the Memorial University of Newfoundland's Centre for Newfoundland Studies, and oral historical data about the schooner fishery gathered by the author since about 1967. In 1967-68 I went to sea with many ex-banks schooner fishermen who were then engaged in groundfish trawling. Over the years I came to know and inter- view about twelve former schooner captains and about fifty or more ex-dory fishermen. The principal oral historical data for this essay, however, are drawn from the biographical recollections of a particularly authoritative Newfound- land banks schooner master. Information from other men interviewed is used where appropriate. Particular attention is upon my primary informant's recollections of skipper and dory fisherman decisions about territorial use by schooners and dory units. I will attempt to draw relationships between material and reputational re- wards, usufruct customs, their violation, and risk taking in these fishing opera- tions.

MITMAN Curator, Divisions of Mineral and Mechanical Technology ;?rtyNc:*? tR^;# WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE 1923 ADVERTISEMENT. The .scientific publications of the United States National Museum consist of two series, the Proceedings and the Bulletins. The Proceedings^ the first volume of which was issued in 1878, are intended primarily as a medium for the publication of original and usually brief, papers based on the collections of the National Museum, presenting newly acquired facts in zoology, geology, and anthropology, including descriptions of new forms of animals and revisions of limited groups. One or two volumes are issued annu- ally and distributed to libraries and scientific organizations. A limited number of copies of each paper, in pamphlet form, is dis- tributed to specialists and others interested in the different subjects as soon as printed. The date of publication is recorded in the table of contents of the volume. The Bulletins^ the first of which was issued in 1875, consist of a series of separate publications comprising chiefly monographs of large zoological groups and other general systematic treatises (occa- sionally in several volumes), faunal works, reports of expeditions, and catalogues of type-specimens, special collections, etc. The majority of the volumes are octavos, but a quarto size has been adopted in a few instances in which large plates were regarded as indispensable. Since 1902 a series of octavo volumes containing papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum, and known as the Con- trihutions from the National Herharium.^ has been published as bulletins.
