EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Raddy Collection transports us back in time to the enchanting Curtis & Pape Boatyard in West Looe. The image captures a moment of bustling activity, hinting at a possible "Visitors Day" when curious onlookers were granted access to this maritime haven. The boatyard, steeped in history and nestled against the picturesque backdrop of West Looe's charming coastline, exudes an undeniable charm that is palpable even through this vintage photograph. As we gaze upon it, we are transported into a world where craftsmanship and seafaring traditions reign supreme. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness skilled artisans meticulously crafting wooden vessels with unwavering dedication. The rhythmic sound of hammers hitting nails resonates through the air as boats take shape under their expert hands. The scent of freshly cut timber mingles with salty sea breeze, creating an intoxicating atmosphere that lingers long after one has left these shores. While details about this particular event remain shrouded in mystery – perhaps intentionally so – what remains clear is the sense of community that thrived within these boatyard walls. Visitors would have marveled at the skill and artistry displayed by these craftsmen while forging connections with fellow enthusiasts who shared their passion for all things nautical. This evocative print serves as a timeless reminder of our enduring fascination with maritime heritage and pays homage to Curtis & Pape Boatyard's legacy as guardians of seafaring tradition.
