太平洋市(Pacific
City)的平底小漁船傳統
地方性遺產
奧勒崗太平洋市的居民喜愛聚集在Kiawanda岬(Cape
Kiawanda)觀看平底小漁船;您曾看過平底小漁船嗎?
平底小漁船(dory
)是一艘底部平坦、兩端尖尖(船頭及船尾)的船,這樣的造型讓它能輕鬆航行於海浪中。1800年代初期,新英格蘭漁民第一次使用平底小漁船。到了後來,奧勒崗沿岸的漁民也開始使用平底小漁船。習慣上,漁夫會使用長槳來划動平底小漁船。大型的捕魚船習慣將平底小漁船疊高放在甲板上,抵達捕魚點後,再由二至四人乘坐平底小漁船進行捕魚作業。
時至今日,許多平底小漁船裝有加速用的汽油發動式馬達。每年七月,太平洋市的漁民們會帶著他們自己的平底小漁船來參加平底小漁船日(Dory
Days)的慶祝活動,人們會一邊吃炸魚一邊觀看Kiawanda岬內的新、舊平底小漁船比賽。
In Pacific City, Oregon, people love to go to Cape Kiawanda to watch the dories. Have you ever seen a dory?
A dory is a flat-bottomed boat, pointed at both the bow (front) and stern (back) so that it can easily ride the waves. Fishermen first used dories in New England in the early 1800s. Eventually, fishermen along the Oregon coast began to use dories, too. Traditionally, dories were powered by fishermen, who rowed the boat with long oars. Large fishing ships used to stack dories several boats high on their decks and when they arrived at a fishing spot, they would send two to four men out in each dory to catch fish.
Today, many dories have gasoline-powered motors for speed. Each year in July dory fishermen from the Pacific City area bring out their dories for a festival called Dory Days. People eat fried fish and watch the dories, old and new, as they race on Cape Kiawanda.
