Flat Corrin sees a Lobster Boat on the Beach


Flat Corrin was very surprised to see a lobster boat on the beach. She wondered why it was there. Grammy explained that sometimes lobstermen have to ground out their boats, (put them on the beach), to repair the bottom, or to scrape off the barnacles that are growing on the bottom of the boat.

On the side of the boat you can see a wooden thing that goes under the bottom to hold the boat straight up. This is called a crab. I don't know why they call it a crab.





This is the crab that held the boat up.
