EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of Deal Boatmen in Kent, England during the early 1900s. The image portrays a group of fishermen huddled together on the pebbled beach, preparing their boats for a day at sea. The men, dressed in oilskins and donning hats, scarves, and waders, are securing their collapsible boats with chains and winches. The rain-soaked scene adds to the raw, authentic atmosphere, with the gray sky and churning sea reflecting the unpredictable and challenging nature of their livelihood. The Deal Boatmen were a community of traditional fishermen who made their living from the bountiful waters of the English Channel. Their unique boats, known as 'Deal Boats,' were designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the sea and were easily transported along the beach. The men would row out to the fishing grounds, often in treacherous weather, to catch fish such as herring, mackerel, and sole. This photograph, taken circa 1903, offers a glimpse into the daily life of these hardy fishermen. It is a poignant reminder of the close-knit community that existed along the Deal seafront and the resilience and determination required to make a living from the sea. The image also highlights the rich maritime history of Walmer and Deal in Kent, which continues to attract visitors and enthusiasts to this day.
