Abstract:

Captain Edward Stanley Lewis was a Beaufort native who was engaged with maritime industry from an early age. Working as a cabin boy for a lumber barge, Lewis adopted sailing and fishing during his teenage years. He worked as a pilot, ferrying yachts from New York to Miami and mastered party boats out of Beaufort. After obtaining his captain’s license, Lewis worked on various menhaden boats associated with Outer Banks fisheries.
