BEACHED LUGGERS DRYING THEIR SAILS
BEACHED LUGGERS DRYING THEIR SAILS shows the sea-front buildings at Hastings, with little ‘single-pole luggers’ sitting on the hard. The sails would be raised to dry, otherwise, if they were stowed away, they would rot because of the salt water. (The same was true of the nets, so they were hung to dry in the ‘net shops’ with widows open for the wind to blow through.)
