Even though doughnuts seemed to one of the main food staples. Those guys out working on the water looked like athletes. You would need to in pretty good shape to survive out there. I don't think I could survive even one day on one of those two man saws.

2,250,000 laths on that boat bound for New York. That's a lot of laths!

Very cool video!

Breakfast at 4, first lunch at 9, second lunch at 2pm (I think) then supper whenever they got in that night. Those boys put it some long days.
