Shipwright Caulking Hull at Tampere Harbor Night

by Marlene Snyder

Stark fluorescent tubes cast a harsh, cool white glow across the wooden hull of a small boat resting on a damp concrete slip. A shipwright leans over the seams, driving oakum into the gaps with a heavy mallet. The early spring thaw leaves puddles reflecting the overhead lights on the harbor floor. Humid air hangs low, visible as a faint mist clinging to the dark water beside the vessel. The worker wears a thick, oil-stained jacket and rubber boots, their movements captured mid-swing. The curved lines of the boat draw toward the rhythmic action of the hammer against the wood. A wet droplet hangs from the edge of the hull, catching the artificial light.
