On April 12, 2024, Logan Collins and Blake Pavri interviewed Bobbie Smith for the Dock Stories project at the UGA Marine Extension/Georgia Sea Grant in Brunswick, Georgia. Bobbie Smith, who had been co-owner of the Sapelo Shrimp dock for over a decade, shared her experiences managing the dock alongside her partner, Bill Harris. She detailed the dock's history, including its transformation from the dilapidated Ward's Dock into the functional and modern Sapelo Shrimp Dock, which became a vital part of the local shrimping community. During the interview, Smith discusses the operations at the dock, including the unloading of fresh and frozen shrimp, the sale of supplies to shrimpers, and the continuous maintenance required due to the wear and tear from heavy steel-hulled boats. She reflects on the challenges of running the dock, such as the financial struggles in the early years, the necessity of installing a new ice plant after the old one became obsolete, and the ongoing difficulties in finding reliable labor. Smith also provides personal anecdotes, illustrating the close-knit community at the dock. She recounts humorous and memorable incidents and the camaraderie built with the shrimpers, captains, and crew members who frequented the dock. Additionally, Smith speaks about the impact of the dock on her family, particularly how her daughters grew up learning the value of hard work through their involvement in the dock's operations. Throughout the interview, Smith emphasizes the importance of maintaining high standards at the dock, the challenges posed by the fluctuating shrimp market, and her hopes for the future of commercial fishing in Georgia.
