In the 1870's, Alice le Plongeon described the local boats:
As for the islanders' boats, they constantly come
and go ; some are exceedingly small. The fisher-
men handle them most skillfully, one alone easily
manages rudder and sail ; they frequently stand up-
right in the smallest craft, apparently as much at
ease as on land. To balance large boats they tie to
the mast a rope with a long loop at the other end.
In this a man sits as in a swing, his feet resting on
the edge of the weather-side of the boat that is thus
kept straight in a very strong wind, the man swing-
ing himself backward over the water.
