The owner is Finley Perry. He just brought it back from Nova Scotia to Salem MA this fall. If you’d like to say hello to him (I’m sure he’d appreciate it), write to fperry@finleyperry.com

He was at Battle Harbour in his board member role so we didn’t get to see Elskov but enjoyed learning about the trip. Great to see your write up! We didn’t go back to Labrador this summer and really missed it.

Fair winds,

Finley Perry is the owner of Elskov, and he’s kept it in impeccable condition. I’m sure he would love to hear from you. I agree it’s a fine boat. Currently it’s in Baddeck at Henry Fuller’s boatyard, but soon it will return to Maine.

I’ve been in love with that boat for 30 years. I used to work at EYC in Marblehead when I was in college. Mr Smith owned it then and it used to be owned by the Noyes, one of their Tiogas. The most beautiful sloop I’ve ever seen. Inside and out. One of Aage Neilsen’s finest. Just curious.

Fair weather to you always.

Caribou, seals, polar bears, whales…the landscape being the main character. Thanks for your part instigating my birthday gift from the family in support of MY adventures. Love, Anne

I love that your story of the north begins in the same Innuit town that I was in in 1976, at the end our our canoe trip from Shefferville. The name has changed, but the place may not have changed that much, and the terrain hardly at all. I recall our final day on the river, looking across that WIDE Koksoak, coming on caribou trails, lighting a fire at lunch because we were so cold, and moving our canoes up because the tide was coming in. And arriving back in civilization, six women and three canoes, and being welcomed most of all by some of the people who worked at the airport. They said, you don’t seem typical of what we think of as Americans….
I trust you will enjoy your birthday somewhere along the shores of Labrador! Happy Birthday in the Arctic!
We are off to dance, sing, and play music, babysit (in French), eat well, and generally enjoy ourselves at Pine Woods for a week. There is a piano workshop among the offerings, looking forward to that. All is well here. This morning we canned up 7 qt and 7 pts of peaches, and about the same of tomato juice. Tropics!
Anne received her ticket-to-adventure promise last night, and seems pretty happy to have her own adventuring spirit nourished by the family.
love,
Ruth
