1 WOODEN BOAT MUSEUM OF NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR Report of Activities

2 Message from Chairman of the Board Frank French I am proud to once again have the privilege of introducing the annual Report of Activities for the Wooden Boat Museum of Newfoundland and Labrador. As you read through the various committee reports, it is evident that the Organization has had another very successful year. We have continued to focus on maintaining partnerships with other organizations and businesses as well as establishing new ones. Our funding arrangements with ACOA and IBRD expired at the end of July and we were successful in obtaining further funding to December We continue to work toward self-sustainability, but the support of these funding partners is critical in our continuing project work throughout the Province. Revenue generating partnerships with Twillingate Island Tourism Association for the lease of our exhibit Before Fibreglass The Wooden Boats of Newfoundland and Labrador at Long Point Lighthouse, and the arrangement with the Trinity Historical Society for establishment of an exhibit, as well as a pilot workshop program, continue to be solid relationships that benefit all parties involved. This year brings to an end my four year term for as Chairman of the Board of Directors. I wish to thank my fellow Board members, volunteers and staff for their dedication and hard work which made my job much easier and the Museum much more successful. Member and corporate support has also been nothing short of outstanding. While the Museum has a bright future, the coming year will no doubt have its challenges; as always, revenue generation will be a priority as well as continued efforts to fine tune present programs along with developing others. We are very excited about the planning efforts toward an international conference next year in Trinity, our documentation and workshop programs, and some pending partnerships to name a few. Please take some time to review the information outlined in this document to help you appreciate the successes of our Organization as we reflect on our motto Look Aft and Learn. Page 1

3 Message from Treasurer of the Board Wallace Pinhorn On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Wooden Boat Museum of Labrador Inc. (WBMNL), I am pleased to provide the financial report for the Fiscal Year Revenues from Project contracts with ACOA and BTCRD and from Museum activities and programs allowed WBMNL to: conduct boat building workshops at Winterton; continue with displays and partnerships with The Trinity Historical Society (THS) and The Twillingate Isles Tourism Association (TITA), market at Trade, Marketing and Heritage Shows; develop preliminary plans for its Trinity Seduction Capacity Building Conference at Trinity in 2016; sponsor a visit by our boat builder, Jerome Canning, to Spain to participate in the San Juan replica rebuild, continue Boats and Builders documentation for its Wooden Boat Field Guide; and continue with its Annual Conference and Quarterly Newsletter. In addition, our partnership with the Town of Winterton allowed the operation of the WBMNL Museum at Winterton for the 2014 Tourist Season. The charts below show categories of Revenue, Project Funding and Expenses for Total Revenue for 2014 was $335,000. WBMNL accounted for 50%, ACOA Funding 26% and BTCRD Funding 24%.

5 The Museum in Winterton Jeremy Harnum, Manager Funding for the operation of the Museum in Winterton is received from Department of Tourism s CEDP Operational Support and supplemented by Museum admission fees, merchandise sales, workshops and donations. Our 2014 staff included a Museum Manager and Assistant Manager; three post-secondary students - a Museum Programming Assistant, a Chief Interpreter and Naval Architect Student, all funded through the Young Canada Works Program; four secondary students as Interpreters and Tour Guides through Canada Summer Jobs and one student through Provincial Summer Student Program. We officially opened the Museum on June 23 rd. Our total number of visitors was 1817, an increase of approximately 25% from The Museum was open for 10 weeks and we averaged 181 people per week during that time. Nine artists participated in in our Artist in Studio Program in July and August, demonstrating their various styles of art, including rug hooking, painting, wood carving, and traditional music. Feedback from tourists was positive and we wish to thank the following artists for volunteering their time - Kevin Coates Wood Carving - Monica Hindy / Marjorie Powers / Doris Harnum Knitting - Rhoda Hedd Rug Hooking - Florence Pinhorn Painting - Melvin Green / Randy Pinhorn Music - Jeanette Jobson Painting Page 4

6 On August 2 nd, the Museum hosted Melvin Green s CD Launch Ireland s Eye. Melvin has been a volunteer with the Museum since its beginning and we were pleased to host this event with his family and friends. The Museum was filled with 175 people who enjoyed an afternoon of great music! A portion of CD sales at the Museum is being donated to the Museum. We wish to thank Melvin for his continued support and dedicated volunteer work at the Museum. Full-guided tours were returned to the Museum programming this year. Our experienced tour guides provide the visitors with a more personal experience and the response from visitors has been overwhelming. Workshops continued throughout the summer season with the implementation of three levels of adult workshops and a weekly children s workshop. With the hard work and determination of our board, staff and volunteers, we have once again enjoyed a successful year. Our ongoing work allows us to celebrate and preserve our wooden boat history - while sharing our past with visitors from all over the world. With a drive and vision that continues to grow, we are striving for an even more successful season in 2015! Page 5

7 Wooden Boat Documentation Committee Crystal Braye, Folklorist Our 2014 Documentation Program has been focused on Twillingate and Trinity. In Twillingate, WBMNL partnered with the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador to offer workshops that taught community members the process for lifting lines from boats and how to collect oral histories. Crystal Braye and Naval Architecture intern Lois Bragg spent time in June and August speaking with boat builders and documenting wooden boats in the area. This information will be archived on Memorial University Digital Archives Initiative (DAI) and will be shared with the Isles Wooden Boat Building Committee in Twillingate and used to create future exhibits, pamphlets and content on our website. As part of WBMNL s new partnership with Trinity Historical Society, Crystal Braye and Bruce Whitelaw developed four new museum panels focused on historical boat building activities in Trinity. These panels were the first to be added our Chapter 2 exhibit in Trinity, with more scheduled to be added for the 2015 season. Crystal Braye and Lois Bragg spent time in Trinity documenting boats and speaking with boat builders and fishermen. The information collected will be used to further develop Chapter 2 of our Wooden Boats of Newfoundland and Labrador story, and will also be added to the Boats and Builders website and Memorial s DAI. Page 6

8 Further documentation work was done in New Bonaventure with fisherman and boat builder Lance Short, including the documentation of a reconstructed local boat. The audio files, photos, and videos have been indexed and will be added to the DAI. This material was used to create new interpretive panels for our exhibit in Trinity. Over the winter, documentation efforts were focused on the development of our new exhibit: They Came for the Fish and Stayed for the Stages now on display at the Museum in Winterton. Based on information collected from late Winterton resident Raymond W. Parrott, interviews with community members and archival research, this exhibit explores Newfoundland and Labrador s salt cod fishery through a look at the stages and flakes that supported this way of life for generations.

9 Wooden Boat Building Workshop Committee Jim Dempsey, Chair In 2014, the Museum introduced three levels of workshops, each level increasing in duration, material and skills developed. Level 1 Intended for the casual visitor to the museum who would like the opportunity to experience some of the satisfaction of traditional boat building as part of the overall museum visit to Winterton and Trinity. Workshops were offered on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 1:00 4:00 PM throughout July and August in Winterton and Trinity. Session topics included: - Stem and Keel - The Mould - Timbers - Planking Level 2 Intended for the enthusiast who has some carpentry experience and would like to learn more about boat building but does not have the time to commit any more than one Saturday at a time. Level 2 workshops included: - 16 Grand Banks Dory Assembly - 14 Fogo Island Punt Components Overview (Use of NL punt; Similarities in design of a punt; details of construction and joinery of the parts) - Timbers - Timber in the Woods - Make and Break Engines (Winterton and Trinity) Level 3 Intended for the enthusiast who is looking for an intense and comprehensive experience in learning the skills and techniques in traditional boat building. In the weeklong sessions, participants will receive a comprehensive review of all of the skills and techniques required for building a round-bottom Newfoundland punt or build a complete Grand Banks dory. Two week long workshops were held in Building a 16 Grand Banks Dory - 14 Fogo Island Punt Components and Techniques Children s Workshops - The Children s Workshop offers hands-on learning and each child leaves with their own hand-crafted model boat. A trip to the brook before they Page 8

10 leave to test their boats is the highlight of their day. These workshops were held each Thursday during July and August in both Winterton and Trinity. In February and March, 2015, WBMNL Master Boatbuilder Jerome Canning travelled to Pasaia, near San Sebastien, Spain to participate in the construction of a replica of the San Juan, a 16 th Century Basque Whaler that sank in Red Bay Labrador in 1565 and was investigated in situ and documented by Parks Canada from The project has been undertaken by Albaola, a Basque Maritime Heritage Organization with similar interests to WBMNL in the preservation of boat building traditions. While in Spain, Jerome learned much about traditional ship design and ship building skills and materials. In addition to hands on construction activities, he was exposed to the local maritime culture and made day trips to witness the harvesting and milling of boat timber, the production of natural pine tar sealants, and the forging of local iron into fastenings for the San Juan. With his co-workers, Jerome was exposed to the rich social culture of the region. Near the end of the visit, WBMNL Director Jim Dempsey joined Jerome in Spain to view the construction project and to meet with Albaola personnel. Jim and Jerome then travelled to Brittany to visit to other traditional boat building centres in Europe. The south coast of Britanny is a significant centre for maritime heritage, the fishing industry, and boat building. Their visits in this area included: Skol ar Mor (School of the Sea) the traditional boat building school in Mesquer (between Nantes and Vannes); A meeting with M. Jean Louis Dauga, a maritime heritage advisor to the French government whose responsibilities include St. Pierre and Miquelon; Port Musee de Douarnenez; Chantier Tanguy, a commercial boat yard specializing in wooden fishing vessels; Les Ateliers de l Enfer, a fisheries and maritime studies college with a traditional wooden boat building program; Federation Regionale Pour la Culture et le Patrimoine Maritimes Musee de la Peche in Concarneau.
