2016.366.2129Rowboat or skiff by Chummy Spurling
  • Object, Vessels, Boat, Skiff
  • Vessels, Boat
Boat. Rowboat or skiff made ca. 1890. White with red trim. (The boat is on the right in this 2016 photo showing two rowboats. The other images are from June 2010 after GCIHS was given the boat and before it was repainted.) Per Willie Granston (GHMM): "used to have a name on the stern (Cat's Miow) and was given to the Historical Society by a Northeast Harbor family who had it in the basement of their cottage (the Brzezinski family)... I had it in an exhibit in Northeast Harbor (The Power of the Oar - Summer 2010), and it looked really really nice. We spent a lot of time cleaning it and washing it... It is almost undoubtedly a Chummy Spurling skiff as I lined it up with a known Spurling and measured the two side by side and all the dimensions matched, down to the size, number, and spacing of the ribs.." (See link below to album showing the rowboat when it was displayed in NEH Maritime Museum.)
