The Marfa-to-Maine truck. Naskeag Harbor, Brooklin ME

Not many boats in the harbor yet. Cold and rough on the gear for lobstering. Many lobstermen don't set out gear until June.

 Portrait by my son.

The Marfa-to-Maine truck.
Bought new at Casner Motors, Marfa 1975.  Maybe that's where it acquired the Chevrolet tailgate, even though it's a GMC Sierra Grande 15.
 I bought it from Bee Pierce in 2010.
Back to Naskeag.
