Our cover girl

Our cover girl this year is the "Olive E." a classic Friend-ship showing unique working detail, from swordfish pulpit tohandsomely rounded cockpit. This photo is from the StebbinsCollection of the Society for Preservation of New EnglandAntiquities, 141 Cambridge St., Boston, Massachusetts.

In an age when the rising cost of gasoline and diesel fuel putsa heavy burden on working fishermen, one wonders if thehandsome function represented by the "Olive E." will not soonreturn to the inshore and offshore fishing grounds of NewEngland.

The following article by Betty Roberts traces the legacy offishing Friendships...

A working Friendship!By Betty Roberts

Fishing with a Friendship! These are like magic words to an old-timefisherman of Muscongus Bay. At mention of a Friendship Sloop he will saunterto a pile of traps, slowly lean against them, gaze at you out of the corner of hiseye, and with a smile on his face, drawl, "Now - those were the good ole days.Well I tell you, these modern fellows don't really know what it's all about."

You want to make sure you have plenty of time to spare when you get one ofthese old fisherman going because you will be fascinated with the tales of a by-gone era when it was man and boat against the sea with no navigational or

electronic aids. In the first place most of these men had built their own boats,and I am sure you have heard the tales about launching by dragging the sloopout on the ice and waiting for spring to float it. Also how one local man built hissloop on the third floor of a barn, and how it had to be lowered to the ground anda right angle turn made at the bottom before the sloop could go into the water.Then a daughter of one of these fishermen tells about going off on the sloop for apicnic every Sunday. Always the wind woud drop before they reached home.Her father would then break out the oar sweeps and usually the children had torow the sloop back to the dock.

Most of the fisherman would spend the winter building a sloop, launch it in thespring, fish with it all summer, sell it in the fall, and start to build a new one.

Friendship sloops were used for many types of work. Men lobstered fromthem, they seined with them, went hand-lining for cod, sword fished andmackerelled also. Occasionally a wet well was built inside one so it could beused as a wet smack.

Lobstering today is a difficult job with all the modern day motors, electronicgear and the like, but to haul and bait traps, manage a huge sail, and keep aboat with about a five foot draft off the rocks must have been a full sized orderfor any man. When an old man was asked about this he said, "Lead out the sheetof the mains'l quite a way, and trim the jib tight while you're hauling. The sloopwill lay good then. The trap will come to the top of the water quite a way off, soyou pull it to you."

Usually two men would team up for winter fishing, and most always theywould take a dory along. If the weather was moderate and calm one man wouldhaul traps from it while the other stayed with the sloop. During a good breeze itwould take all the skills of both men to sail the boat and haul the traps, withwind, waves and spray keeping them well wet down most of the time. In thosedays a man had one gang or string of traps, and sixty was about all he couldhandle in one day. They couldn't get into the rocks as they do now because of thedraft of the sloop, In the winter weather it was hard, cold, wet work, and oneman would stand down in the "cuddy" snug and warmer watching his partner'sface. When the nose of the man at the helm turned white it was time to changeplaces.

Summertime work included not only lobstering but fishing of all kinds. Cod,haddock, halibut, swordfish, mackerel were all welcome catches. Purse seiningwas quite an operation. This involved the "setting round the boat" of a seine tocatch schooling fish. The sloop was allowed to drift while toll was spread out onthe water. When the mackerel, herring or whatever appeared, a purse swinewas dropped overboard surrounding the sloop, This completed, up went the jiband the sloop sailed out of the net. A man was posted on the bowsprit equippedwith a long handled pole, and it was his job to push the edge of the net deepenough to clear the rudder as they sailed out of the purse.

Those termed "smacks" were for the transporting of lobsters. The sloop wasbuilt with a tight bulkhead fore and aft, and the middle of the sloop had holes sothe salt water could come in and circulate around the lobsters keeping themalive and assuring safe delivery at the market.

The advent of motors and modern equipment around 1915 almost relegatedthis great craft to extinction, but her fine lines, her seaworthiness, and hergreat record have added "yachting" to her long list of uses. Her fishing careerhas given way to progress, but her charm will live forever. Now on Sloop Days,who is it you see leaning against the same stack of traps, with his eyes squintedagainst the sun? Of course, it is our old time lobsterman. He is heard to remark,"Those were the good ole days, but she still looks might pretty."

This sign meansSTEER CLEARIf you work or play on the lakes

and waterways of Maine, thissign could save your life. CentralMaine Power has hung hundredsof these orange markers onwater-spanning power linesthroughout our service area.

Why? Because the taller woodand metal masts used onnewer craft have created thepotential hazard of contact withoverhead powerlines. This signacts as a safety warning tothe boating public to STEERCLEAR. And since many summercamps located by lakes andponds have an active sailing andboating program, the youngpeople using these facilities

should be taught to watch for thiswarning too.

Electric power is a great andhelpful servant, but it mustbe treated with respect. Every-one must work to make electricityas safe as possible.

That's what the STEER CLEARsigns are all about.

Friendship cats?

Everyone knows about or has heard of the "Friendship Sloop" but if youwere to talk about a "Friendship Cat", I am sure your listener would conjure upthe image of a four legged feline. Not so - Not so! The Friendship Catboat is adelightful sailboat of 16' 1" built primarily with racing in mind.

Years ago it seems a summer resident of Friendship, an excellent sailor, wasinterested in a boat which would be good for teaching young sailors. So, in theyear 1925 he talked two Friendship men, Gene Brown and Archie Thompson,into designing and building this one design boat. In the next few years eight ofthese were constructed and raced every Sunday in Friendship Harbor. Theyraced down around the Can, back through the harbor, around Ram Island andfinished between the two spindles, or some such similar course was followed. Ofthe original eight boats there are still six in existence, and can often be seensailing on a good day.

There was the "Ananannie", "Foolish Fish", "Ella Marie", "Cynthis S","Bobette", "Claire", "Tiny Bud", and one belonging to Mrs. Armstrong.During the 1920's and through the 30's these Cats raced every weekend. Thenalong came the war and this brought the racing pasttime to a screeching halt.In the 40's Carlton Simmons found the old molds, teased them into shape andbuilt four more. From time to time since the war the racing has been revivedand up until 1963 or 1964 there was a running record of the winners kept.

What is this dream boat like? Length 16'1", beam 5'8", and draft of 4V2 withthe centerboard up. She has a flat bottom with a slight rocker. The bottom wascrossed planked and made of cedar. The rest of the boat including transom ndfive frames were all of oak. She is half decked, gaff-rigged, and has a center-board. The 18' mast was spruce and she carried 130 square feet of sail. AFriendship resident recalls watching one of the men shape the mast for one ofthe originals from a spruce tree he had chopped right near his house.

If these old boats could talk they would tell stories of many past fun times,sails and races. They claim these boats were built for the youngsters, but oneperson recalled the parents sailed most of the time.

Is it the memory of past good times, the sight of a Friendship Cat sailing,desire to race and win, or just the love of traditional lines that is prompting 6 ormore men to have a 1981 model of this great boat? The hammering from Doug!Lash's shop indicates that more of these boats will be racing this summer. Thenew ones will have bronze fastenings as a change from the galvanized of the oldones, and the mast is Sitka spruce. Instead of the price tag of $75 for the firstones, the modern version will be in the $3000 price range. The smiles on thefaces of the prospective new owners will mean that a sail in such a finetraditional craft is a pleasure at any price.

There are not too many boat designs that live the test of time, but the Friend-ship Catboat has endured about 60 years. What naval architct can say threequarters of his original fleet are still sailing after such a lone time?

Gladiator Trophy: For years, Society Secretary Caroline Zuber and herhusband, Bill, traveled to Friendship from New Jersey. On one trip theyconceived the idea of giving a trophy each year for the sloop coming thegreatest distance to the regatta. This is it.

Nickerson Trophy: Presented each year to the youngest skipper actually incommand of a sloop during the races. It is given by Mr. Nickerson, a memberof the Race Committee in the first year, because he was so impressed with theregatta and Friendship Sloops.

Post Office Trophy (POT): Presented in fun to the sloop "Most Worthy ofIt". A few years ago the new Friendship post office was built, and the con-tractor finished it off with a marconi-rigged sloop for a weather vane. Afterconsiderable criticism had been voiced, some from rather high places, JohnGould's cousin undertook to make a gaff-rigged sloop vane in keeping withFriendship "tradition". The marconi-rigged sloop, after its removal from thepost office, was incorporated into a POT trophy by John Gould, and ispresented each year for the biggest goof in the fleet.

Cynthia's Cruisin' Cake!By Cynthia Lauriat

of the Great Yacht Salatia

At the urging of my brothers, I am going to share with you a favorite cakerecipe and the story that goes with it.

Cocktail hour aboard "Salatia" has never been quiet! Between balloonfights, swimming and all the rest, a good time is enjoyed. But cocktail hour onSaturday has become special because of my "famous" coconut cruisin' cake. Ifound the recipe in 1976 while cooking in a hotel for the summer. The recipereally appealed to me because I adore coconut.

So that year I made the cake and it went aboard "Salatia" for the trip toFriendship. I can't remember if we cut into it before we arrived. But sincethen, a tradition has been established that the cake is stowed away below on"Salatia" and only comes out for cocktail hour on Saturday after the last race.By then it has aged a week, and thus has superb flavor! The aging is veryimportant, and it seems to age better aboard a boat. Believe me, I made onethis winter, aged it a week, and it didn't have nearly the usual flavor!

So this year, as you cook and put together supplies for your sloop, take timeto make this cake.The date for baking this year is July 18th.

Cynthia's Cruisin' Cake: 2 sticks oleo, two-thirds cup Crisco, 3 cups sugar, 5eggs, 3 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon coconutflavoring, 1 cup coconut (I probably use iy2 cups!).

Cream together the oleo, Crisco and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time. Siftflour and baking powder, add to creamed batter alternately with milk. Stir inflavoring and coconut. Bake 1V2 hours in a large angel cake pan which hasbeen greased and floured. Use a 350 degree oven.

P.S. Captain and Mrs. Alan Bellhouse and their girls, Nancy and Dolly, willattest to the superb flavor of this cake.

(Editor's Note: The instruction "350 degree oven" does not refer to angle ofheel. Rather, it refers to the temperature setting achieved after you turn theoven on. If anyone else has a favorite cruising recipe they would like to sharewith us, send it along.)

Why not...A young boy may be forgiven the thought it is the trees waving that makes

the wind blow. But ask any sailor, particularly the riper ones on Friendships,and you'll be amazed how many of them, after years of wrestling with thethreat and theory of wind, of discussing it and cussing it, have returned to hidebehind that simple verity of their youth. They'll fix you with their tired eyes,throw their jaws right out at you and ask: Why isn't it the trees waving thatmakes the wind blow?

Event - Friendship Chowder RaceTime-l:OOP.M.Place - Friendship Harbor, MaineWeather Conditions - Fair, Good breezeContestants - 48

For those of you who are not familiar with a "Chowder Race'' be it known thatthis is a race of sailboats which includes all lengths of boat and an assortment ofrigs. What makes it a "Friendship" Chowder Race is due to the place it washeld and the pervading atmosphere.

On August 29, 1980, which by the way was the Saturday of Labor Dayweekend, this great race was held. If you have ever been a "summercator" andhad to close a cottage and reluctantly rush to get everything done beforeleaving for the city and job or school, you have some idea what it means to take2 hours out of an already very active day to have a sailboat race. (Granted thisis the way to handle your frustrations, but it is not a very productiveprocedure.) This day mid the flurry, fury, and frenzy of chores 48 exuberantskippers took time out for this one last sail. You would not believe the pre-raceactivity. Gone were the thoughts of shutting off the water, stacking away thedeck furniture and trying to find space in an already jam-packed car for onelast bag. One local boy was even putting last minute touches on a new rudderfive minutes before the start of the race.

The course had been meticulously planned according to tide, and along withrules and regulations had been distributed to every contestant and a raceCommittee was on deck to call the shots. Nothing had been omitted even toproviding a well equipped Rescue - First Aid boat. The only demandingsituation encountered by this last crew was to rescue a spectator craft whichhad run out of gas.

No one would believe the assortment of boats which eagerly shot across thestarting line: Sail Fish, Cat Boats, Knock-abouts, Typhoons, Sea Bird yawlRozmante ketch, Kittiwake, Ranger - everything from 10' to 28'. What a sight itwas to see them all rounding the buoys on the race course. Friendship Harbortook on the appearance and exhileration of Sloop Days. The shore was linedwith cheering relatives and excited neighbors. Fifty three minutes after thestart of beautiful Ranger 22 with a handsome spinnaker glided across the finishline only to find he was disqualified. Did someone trick him?

Incidentally, can you possible imagine what the winning trophy could havebeen? You know it -- a gold paper wrapped can of Snow's Clam Chowder

This event was such an instant success with it great sailing, participant en-thusiasm and comradery that immediate plans were underway for FriendshipChowder Race 1981. If you live in Friendship area and want to race your 30' orunder boat, we will look for you September 5, 1981. Yuh - it's Labor Davweekend again.
