Paul reminisces, "For generations,
schooners have harvested the rich fishing banks off Nova Scotia.
They could be out for weeks at a time, fishing til their
vessels could hold no more, before racing back home knowing first
in brought the best price. In the 1930s and 40s, my Uncle
Joe and his sons sailed these craft and told me many a sea story.
This painting honors them and all seamen who sailed these magnificent
schooners.
