The document discusses how Littlehampton was once an important fishing port famous for its lobsters. However, today only a few lobster boats remain due to fishing quotas and rising costs. The traditional 18-foot boats that give color to the River Arun are becoming increasingly rare and may soon be unviable. The images aim to capture a fishing industry that could soon be consigned to history books, as Littlehampton does little to help the remaining fishermen survive. The document shows photos of the colorful remaining lobster boats and lobstermen along the river.

- 2. IMAGES OUT OF THE ORDINARY ABOUT LITTLEHAMPTON’S LOBSTER BOATS ONCE AN IMPORTANT FISHING PORT FAMOUS FOR ITS LOBSTERS, TODAY LITTLEHAMPTON’S FISHING FLEET IS DOWN TO JUST A FEW BOATS. WITH THE IMPOSITION OF FISHING QUOTAS AND THE RISING COST OF LICENSING AND OPERATING, THE LIKELIHOOD IS THE ATTRACTIVE 18 FOOT FISHING BOATS THAT ADD SO MUCH COLOUR TO THE MOUTH OF THE RIVER ARUN WILL SOON NOT BE VIABLE TO RUN AND BECOME AN INCREASINGLY RARE SIGHT. IN THEIR PLACE WILL BE A HANDFUL OF BIGGER, MORE VERSATILE BOATS THAT CAN FISH FURTHER OUT AND CARRY MORE POTS. THESE IMAGES AIM TO CAPTURE A FISHING INDUSTRY THAT COULD SOON BE CONSIGNED TO THE HISTORY BOOKS. SADLY, RATHER THAN SEEKING TO PROTECT ITS FISHERMEN AND THE ASSET THEY ARE TO THE TOWN, LITTLEHAMPTON IS DOING LITTLE TO HELP THEM SURVIVE - AND THAT’S A REAL SHAME. IF YOU’RE INTERESTED IN SEEING THE OTHER SIDE OF THE LOBSTER INDUSTRY, I ALSO HAVE A PHOTOSTORY ON SLIDESHARE WHICH DOCUMENTS A DAY I SPENT ONBOARD A COMMERCIAL LOBSTER BOAT. THIS PROJECT THOUGH IS ABOUT VISUALLY RECORDING ALL OF THE TRADITIONAL FISHING BOATS THAT ARE STILL WORKING OUT OF LITTLEHAMPTON...AND AS YOU WILL SEE, THERE AREN’T THAT MANY LEFT. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY NOTICE THE IMAGES CONTAINED IN THIS PRESENTATION WERE CREATED BY GARY MARLOWE AND, WHILST BEING AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING ON SLIDESHARE, THEY REMAIN THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF GARY MARLOWE. © GARY MARLOWE | 2009 - 2011 gary marlowe
