. This vintage print from the Raddy Collection takes us on a nostalgic journey back in time to witness the bustling maritime activity at East Looe Quay. Despite its slightly faded quality, this image beautifully encapsulates an era when lugger boats and steamboats were the lifeblood of coastal communities. In the foreground, we see the magnificent Lugger Vera gracefully anchored at the quay. Its weathered wooden hull tells tales of countless voyages across treacherous waters, while its taut sails stand tall against a backdrop of clear blue skies. The skilled crew members can be seen meticulously attending to their vessel, ensuring it is ready for its next adventure. Adjacent to Lugger Vera lies an elegant steamboat, emitting gentle puffs of smoke as it rests before embarking on another river or sea voyage. With its polished metal exterior gleaming under sunlight, this majestic vessel symbolizes progress and innovation in maritime transportation during that period. The scene is further enhanced by glimpses of daily life unfolding around these vessels - fishermen mending nets nearby and locals going about their business along the quayside. This snapshot serves as a reminder that beyond their utilitarian purpose, these ships were integral parts of vibrant communities where livelihoods depended on successful seafaring endeavors. While some may lament the slight deterioration in image quality over time, this photograph remains invaluable for preserving our connection with
