Skiffs at Nobby Isle. One of these may be the "Jennie", rechristened "Tub Tessie" by a twentieth century owner, but with her brass name plate in the bow intact. She is a small canoe skiff, as opposed to the more well known St. Lawrence skiff, and had been outfitted with rudder rings and a block to step a mast. She had evidently been used as a sailing skiff.
