WATER FRONT YARNS "HEARD IN THE LEE OF THE LONGBOAT" The north river was a hive of activity on Saturday last when two large cranes hauled-out most of the craft from the Yacht Club and government docks. Bayfield Boat Yard was contracted to hire August Equipment from London and the Wharf Rats hired Harry Adams from Goderich to haul-out their boats. These big cranes stretched their booms out into the river dropping their cradles into the water and each boat in turn was piloted into these slings and lifted gently skyward and put safely onto a waiting float or berthed neatly side by side, far up on the north-river side. Bay field Rangers Karen Brandon, Louise MaeVean, Valerie Merner and Diane Pugh were in charge of the coffee wagon for the day. Bosun's mate Michael Gozzard, Crew leader Peter MacVean, and sea scouts Jeff Mayman, Michael Warner, Tommy Telford, Brad and Leonard Voisin, Wes Gozzard and Jimmie Mackie manned the scrub brushes and cleaned the bottoms of the craft as they were hauled-out of the river.
