PUBLIC LIBRARY


PLYMOUTH, MASS.


The photograph on cover shows the recently completed Town Wharf and a part of the Plymouth fishing fleet.


The present wharf, which measures 250 feet long by 75 feet wide, constructed of 7-inch thick reinforced concrete slabs, creosoted piling and galvanized hardware, replaces the old wharf built in 1921 of un- treated material, 90 feet long by 60 feet wide, and rendered unsafe by marine borers. In addition to the creation of additional wharf space, it was also designed in a manner that would provide as much shelter as possible to shipping during severe storms, with deep water on three sides.


Of the thirty-one fishing boats of the dragger type that used the facilities in 1954, twenty-one were of local registry. Thirty-one million, nine hundred and ninety-four thousand (31,994,000), pounds of fish of all types were landed in 1954. Nine large trailers and ten large trucks were involved in the handling and transportation of the fish. On busy days more than two hundred tons of ice per day were used in packing. Considering boat crews, handlers, truckmen and all others engaged in the fishing enterprise centered in the wharf area, close to three hundred men were employed .. That amount of fish represents an average value of $1,599,700.00.


Early records reveal that in 1831 twelve ships, thirty-five brigs and ten schooners sailed from Plymouth engaged in foreign trade. One hundred and ten schooners and nineteen sloops were engaged in the fishing and coast-wise trade, and two schooners and twelve sloops of less than twenty tons were engaged in miscellaneous maritime business, the total employing one thousand three hundred and twelve (1,312) sea- men.


While the present day enterprise does not compare with that of early days, there is ample opportunity to further develop our harbor in the way of more anchorage, storm shelter or breakwater, and docks that would enhance the economy of our town.
