..... here is a film made in 1930 ....

most interesting and fascinating insight into their society; it loks like a tough life....

amazing footage of the stern first launch dwon the slipper slides of the boat in winter

( leaves still off trees) and the sailing in heavy weather, striking the headsail and casting overboard of the nets

fascinating viewing!
