Description:
Paul Stubing said this is a photograph of a Rhodes 19 sailboat named "Black Pearl". This photo appears to have been taken from the Manset shore because the cape on Greenings Island is in the background. The Rhodes 19 has her sails up and she is alongside a float. Her sail # is 1012. There is a whaler tied to the head of the float and there are several rowboats overturned on the float. Moving towards the foreground, you see two bullseyes tied to the float. Each bullseye has its sails on but lowered. There is a male standing in the stern of one, looking at the Rhodes. This docking area seems to be what is now called Manset Yacht Service, formerly known as The Boathouse. Hinckley's dock is in the background. [show more]

Description:
Paul Stubing indicated that this begins a series of six pictures depicting boats up on the shore in a Southwest Harbor cove. This looks like the cove at the head of the harbor by the Western Way condominiums. There is part of a house visible in the upper right hand corner. Another house is seen in the woods above the stabilizing stern sail in the second boat from the left of the photograph. There are seven vessels beached for cleaning. Two people are visible working on the hull of the first boat from the left. There is a punt beached off the bow of the same vessel. There is another man visible walking towards the bow of the fourth vessel from the left. Ralph Stanley indicated in an interview with A. L. Welles that hull # 1L148 belonged to Carleton Gilley and was built by Paul Patton in Ellsworth. Charles Gilley owned and worked for Mrs. Lyman on Sutton's. He believes the punt is a Farley punt. Hull #1M551 (third boat from the left) is the first boat Ralph Stanley built (1951) and it was this boat that was owned by Charles Gilley. [show more]
