Capturing the Legacy of Fishing Smacks - A Glimpse into History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the timeless beauty and rich maritime heritage of two remarkable vessels, William McCann (H1394) and Westward Ho! (TN54). Dating back to 1884, these Hull fishing smacks stand as testaments to a bygone era when sail boats dominated the Humber Estuary. In this snapshot from June 30th, 1984, we witness an extraordinary juxtaposition of old and new. The iconic Humber Bridge gracefully spans the horizon, serving as a majestic backdrop for these historic ships. As they glide through the tranquil waters beneath this engineering marvel, one cannot help but be transported back in time. The William McCann (H1394), originally built as a Hull fishing smack in 1884, proudly displays its weathered sails while navigating alongside its Faroese counterpart. The Westward Ho! (TN54), also constructed in that same year, exudes elegance with its sleek design and pristine white hull. This image encapsulates not only the beauty of sailing vessels but also pays homage to Yorkshire's strong connection with seafaring traditions. It serves as a reminder of how shipping played a vital role in shaping England's coastal communities throughout history. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints' meticulous attention to detail and expert craftsmanship, this print allows us to cherish these magnificent vessels forever. Let it transport you on an enchanting journey through time—a
