’90-year-old lobsterman survives boat sinking by swimming to island off Maine’
As a boatbuilder, Maine lobster boats are something I admire greatly, especially those built by Royal Lowell. Good to see they salvaged this one.

    Gotta give it to those Mainiacs,they’re a tough bunch :lol:

    Maine woman answers the door to find two of her husband’s friends bringing her bad news.-
    “Sorry to be the ones to tell you this ma’am,but last night your husband lost his footing and slipped over the rail on his Lobster boat,He was lost and drowned before anyone could save him.When we found his body this morning he had four Lobster,ten Crabs and six Eels on him”.

    The woman replied-“well tis a shame,rake off the take and send him out again,maybe you’ll do better next run” :mrgreen:
