| "Whiticar Waterway Tales: A Personal Narrative by G.C. Whiticar" This first person narrative of Curt WHitivar's ninety years in what today is Martin COunty is a priceless gift. Curt and his daughter, Laura Kay Darvill, have combined their talens and skills to produce something that is truly miraculous. How many ninety0six0year0olds have crystal clear memories and the ability to write them down and illlustrate them? Curt Whiticar is no ordinary oldster. He is the patriarch of a family which has dominated Martin County's marine industries as fishermen, charter boat captains, and boat builders. On top of all this, more than sixty years ago, Curt designed the Stuart Sailfish Club's famous sailfish release button that has helped immeasurably to preserve the species. Much of the history of the St. Lucie River region is connected with the boating industry, and the local boating industry and the Whitcar name are practically synonomous. Paperback 100 pages |
