At left: Once known as Jack, this 100-year-old Truscott launch was delivered to Dollar Island in 1908, and has never left the Les Cheneaux Islands. Modifications have been made to the decks and seating, while the cypress hull is original. Cedarville resident Mort Pomeroy (left) is the sixth owner of the 21-foot boat, which is now named The Islander. She was built by the T.H. Truscott and Sons Boat Yard in St. Joseph.
