16696Aerial photos of the Hinckley Company boatyard in Manset
  • Image, Photograph, Photographic Print
  • Businesses, Boatbuilding Business
The aerial photograph above appears to have been taken in the mid 1970s, but no earlier than 1974 because of the presence of a 1974 Pontiac Trans Am and what looks like a 1974 VW Super Beetle in the parking areas. The other photo is older, possibly late 1950s, as is evidenced by the cars and the absence of some of the newer building in the first photograph. In the older image, The Moorings is clearly visible in the upper right portion of the photo.

16693Luxury yacht Vanda anchored in Southwest Harbor
  • Image, Photograph, Photographic Print
  • Vessels, Boat
  • Southwest Harbor, Manset
Photo of the 240’ yacht “Vanda” anchored in Southwest Harbor. The photo appears to have been taken from Manset with Saint Savior, Flying Mountain, and Acadia Mountain in the background. The tip of Clark Point is visible in the upper left with a large unidentified structure near the left edge of the photo. Docked in the foreground is a tender with lettering that reads “BABY V” but the last letter is obscured by the dock ramp. The photo was probably taken by Henry Rose Hinckley II, who according to his daughter Ann Levy, “was an amateur photographer and developed his own photos. He had a darkroom in the basement of both the old house (at the head of the harbor) and the newer one (just behind the boat yard).” The print was with others in her possession which had belonged to her uncle Benjamin B. Hinckley. The date of the photo is unknown, but it had to have been taken between 1928 when Vanda was built and 1942 when she was acquired by the U.S. Navy.
