The classic Grand Banks Dory became the most-built wooden rowboat in history between the mid-1800s and early 1900s. It's classic form was ideal for codfishing on the Grand Banks, and each boatbuilding town evolved it's own methods and traditions. Today only one unbroken string of dory builders reminas--Milford Buchanan in Shelburne, Nova Scotis is still building the Shelburne Dory the way the Old Fellas taught him. This is his story.
