Askew

June 27, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Pamlico River, NC

Pilings lashed together are called dolphins. Dolphins riddled with rot and bent by the current like old men are simply called debris. This dolphin in the Pamlico River opposite Washington, NC, once secured fuel barges and lumber schooners.

Shadows

June 26, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Pamlico River, NC

The Highway 17 bridge over the Pamlico River at Washington, NC, isn’t beautiful or architecturally significant. It’s concrete and stolid but in the early morning light it becomes briefly mysterious.

To purchase this print, visit the Waterfront Gallery.

Havens Wharf

June 20, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Washington, NC

Sailboats docked at Havens Wharf, Washington, NC. Washington was a busy river port and shipbuilding center since the American Revolution. Now it’s a sleepy river town that attracts tourists.

To purchase this print, visit the Waterfront Gallery.

Splintered

Bayboro, NC

A splintered dock on the narrow channel of Bayboro. Bayboro is a fair distance from Pamlico Sound. Many boats lay up here to refit. A few have their homeport here.

Awash

June 19, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Engelhard, NC

An old fishing boat in Engelhard Harbor, decks awash, dock lines still secured. It’s the fate of most wooden fishing boats to sink at sea or in the harbor. The cost of breaking them up and hauling them away usually falls to the municipality, a pauper’s burial.

To purchase this print, visit the Waterfront Gallery.

Captain Mike

June 19, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Engelhard, NC

The Captain Mike will never go to sea again. Her planks are sprung, seams are open, and rust stains her white hull. Some old boats have value in their scrap metal. Old wooden boats are just an expense.

To purchase this print, visit the Waterfront Gallery.

Another day

June 18, 2020 by Charles Thrasher Leave a Comment

Engelhard, NC

The wreckage of fishing boats line the wharves in Engelhard Harbor. Some are still afloat, some awash. If the sun rises and you’re still above water, it’s a good day. At least, another day.

To purchase this print, visit the Waterfront Gallery.
