FINISHING THEIR JOURNEY

FINISHING THEIR JOURNEY from Portland to Eastport in a 17-foot Swampscott dory on October 8 are Paul Moughamian (left), Jayme Schroeder and Echo, a husky who stayed still during the trip. The two men spent about half of the three-week journey rowing and the other half sailing, using a lug sail. They wore drysuits and say the most hazardous section was along the Bold Coast, through the Lubec Narrows and off Eastport. They had built the dory themselves from a kit. (Edward French photo)
