This is a story written to accompany photos found in the Bridgehampton Museum's archive.

Paul the Cat is a wonderful sailor. He walks placidly down the bowsprit to his station.

Once there, he takes a moment to inspect his surroundings.

Trusted by the helmsman, Paul keeps a lookout on the bow.

On a hot summer day such as this one, Paul is granted his break early. He takes it with relief and exits the vessel via an oar.

Sweet relief. A swim in Mecox Bay does wonders to cool Paul’s sun-heated black fur.

Joining his friends on land, Paul bounds to go play.

Paul ends his day drying his fur in the sun and playing with his friends.

The end.
