TIDE~N~TIME is fitting name for this dory from Dark Harbor on Grand Manan Island in the Bay of Fundy, where the tides fluctuate 30+ feet a day. This dory is used to access remote areas of the island's rocky shore to harvest seaweed and periwinkle snails.
The boat name is a play on an excerpt from 14th century writer Geoffrey Chaucer - "Time and tide wait for no man" - emphasizing the unstoppable rhythms of nature that we have to work with, not against. This certainly holds true for the biggest tides in the world on the Bay of Fundy. The tide here doesn't wait for the fishermen - they will work in the middle of the night if necessary to catch the low tides that expose what they can harvest along the shoreline.
