The John Henry Gay family continues to run the Gay fishing Company at St. Helena Island, SC. The family started the business in 1948, and it is still in operation today despite many obstacles. What was once a big business is SC has dwindled down to only a few Shrimpers. In the painting, the men on the boat can be seen sorting the fleshly caught shrimp before docking. The original watercolor is available. Please contact Sandra at sandraroperfineart@gmail.com for details. Giclee prints are available.
