10898Lobster Yacht
  • Reference
  • Vessels, Boat, Lobster Boat
  • Southwest Harbor
The term "Lobster Yacht" denotes a pleasure boat built on the lines of a working lobster boat. The term is more commonly used "away" than on Mount Desert Island. This name describes the look of these boats in a world where so many working and pleasure boats resemble each other. Boat builders on MDI would probably not use this term so this database generally uses the term "pleasure boat" and leaves the viewer to make his or her own distinction. The following publications and many others use the term Lobster Yacht: - National Fisherman, Volume 70, 1989 - Understanding Boat Design by Edward S. Brewer and Ted Brewer, published by McGraw-Hill Professional, 1993 - The Illustrated Dictionary of Boating Terms: 2,000 Essential Terms for Sailors & Powerboaters by John Rousmaniere, W. W. Norton & Company, 1998 - Wooden Boat, Wooden Boat Publications, 2005 - Sorensen's Guide to Powerboats, 2 by Eric Sorensen, published by McGraw-Hill Professional, 2007

  • Reference
  • Vessels, Boat, Lobster Boat
This no-name spray hood lobster boat was originally owned by Joseph Elwood Spurling. The vessel had been brought up to Maine by summer people and so started out life as being slightly more elegant than the common fishing boat. She was planked with southern cedar and copper fastened. Elwood used her for weir fishing. He later sold it to Henry Lewis Linscott. When Ralph Ober Phippen owned the vessel he used it for lobster fishing. – Ralph Warren Stanley, 2009.
