The boat is a 14ft Peterborough Cedar Strip, the kicker a 7.5 HP Elgin built by Chrysler. The combination sold for about $800 in 1956. Thorah Island harbour is in the background. The "light" in those days was a lantern on top of the pyramidal wooden structure.

hey great pic we called that a flake back east..cod was salted for a few days/weeks and then put in the sun to be cured..spent many days putting the fish out to dry and bringing them back in at sun down or rain moving in..

and trying to keep the cats from dragging it away bit by bit, LOL

been there and done that avenge....
