Ralph is shown using a winch head to haul his traps. Robert Crowe had not yet developed the east coast Hydro-Slave pot hauler. He did so in 1964 thereby making it much easier to lift the heavy, water sodden pots from the sea.

The boathouse just visible over "Lillian's" bowsprit belonged to William Doane Stanley (1855-1932), "Uncle Jimmy." His Chester Clement built passenger launch, "Leader" is on the shore to the right of the boathouse. Jimmy used her to carry summer people in the summer. In the winter he took off the wicker chairs etc. and used her to carry sardines to the factories.
