Block and Tackle Vintage used in the Commercial Fishing Industry lifting heavy nets and orders blocks of ice.

Great in any Nautical Decor . This is a working Block and Tackle found hanging at a Fish House located in Sneads Ferry, North Carolina. Used for many years to lift heavy nets full of shrimp or that days catch to be weighed and paid for. Upon leaving the docks the Trawlers would load blocks of ice back on to they`re holding rooms for the next trip out and provide cold holding to keep the current catch fresh until it returned to shore and processed. The possibilities are endless in the ways this can be used in your decorating project.
