"Harvard Riley Beal’s (1897-1967) bait scow is at the far left. The fully canvassed boat behind the rigging on the left was “Frolic,” Harold L. Wedge’s (1912-1986) passenger launch. The dark boat in the right middle belonged to Leslie Stanwood King (1879-1936) who ran fish and rum in it. Spray hood boat on the far right, partly out of the picture, was Grover Ambrose Morse’s (1885-1960) boat, built by Lewis Melvin Candage (1867-1950)."
