About this Event
In the male-dominated industries of seafood and aquaculture, women have to work twice as hard to prove themselves. But in New Hampshire’s small fishing and aquaculture industries, women have broken down barriers and forged their own paths to success. Women on the Water tells the stories of six women in New Hampshire who have overcome personal and societal challenges to establish themselves in lobstering, seafood distribution, oyster farming, and tuna fishing on their own terms. Discover what independence, determination, and grit look like for women making a name for themselves on the water in the Granite State. The film was produced by New Hampshire Sea Grant and the vision of co-creators Tim Briggs and Gabriela Bradt and director Haley McHatton.
Runtime: 44 mins.
