14941Merry Wings - Maine Sloop Boat
  • Reference
  • Vessels, Boat, Sailboat, Sloop
  • 1903 c.
"Merry Wing" was a Maine Sloop Boat, a centerboard sloop because Lewis Freeman Gott was from Gotts Island and he needed to be able to raise the centerboard to get into the Pool there. Lewis Freeman Gott won a cup for winning the Eagle Island Races three years in a row with "Merry Wing". The cup may be seen in the Tremont Historical Society Museum. "Local lore has it that she was the fastest sailboat in the area, and from time to time was entered in the early races held in the Great Harbor (Southwest Harbor - Northeast Harbor - Cranberry Isles neighborhood) under the auspices of the Northeast Harbor Fleet, and there proved her merit by beating everybody!" - The Newsletter of the Tremont Historical Society, Vol. 15, No. 1, Summer 2012, p. 1.

Contrast the postcard view, titled "Entrance Somes Sound, North East Harbor, Me." in SWHPL 7010 with that of SWHPL 12460, which bears the title, "View near Somes Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." Both cards show the Nathaniel Gott House on Greenings Island. The image in SWHPL 12460 would be to the left or south of that in SWHPL 7010 if viewed from the water near Sutton Island. The title is misprinted on this card. It reads, "View near Somers Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." "Gladys" mailed the card to Miss Nena Reed in Seal Harbor from Center, Tremont, Maine on July 2, 1909.
