Billy Morrison and Harry Middleton Jr. playing beside two wash tubs. In the background is the boat ways with roof to the west of the Middleton machine shop (peaked roof) and the shed-roofed blacksmith shop and engine room. Boats were pulled up with a two-speed winch powered by a single-cylinder Easthope with a water hopper cooling the motor.

Photograph of a white house with rock-walled terraces to its right. This was Amy and Scotty McKenzie's float house, moved from Von Donop Inlet in 1951. Amy was daughter of Ruth and Henry Byers, who lived in the “Grey House” west of the ferry landing. (The "Grey House" was later moved to Squirrel Cove next to the Store.) The McKenzie house was between the Grey House and the ferry landing; it was torn down ca. 1974. The terraces may still be seen in the small park next to the ferry landing.
