PHOTO ESSAY by Ron Lightbourn – Historical vessels from the Bahamas’ maritime past

The contemporary photos were taken by Ron Lightbourn, historian of Nassau, and the older B&W ones are from his collection, kindly shared here with his gracious permission. If readers have further input and stories and details about individual boats and/or their contribution to the carriage of mails throughout Bahamas, please let me know at eric@ericwiberg.com. Enjoy!
