Rusting Aweigh

March 20th 2010
This home made Killick was captured on the shoreline of South River. I bet it could tell a lot of stories of the boats it was used from & what the boats were catching.

| Very nice photo that brings back memories. A part of our fading history. |

| Nice photo! Looks like a large grapnel. A killick has four wooden claws and rock weights and a anchor has only two claws... |

| Interesting pic. Those killicks were heavy...even the wooden ones! |
