The ancestors of today's lobster catchers used boats that were powered by oars and wind. However, the early 1900s brought the invention of the gasoline engine. Powerboats began to replace sailboats and rowboats. With engines supplying power to trap haulers, lobster catchers no longer had to pull in their traps by hand. Nowadays, almost all of Maine's nearly 6,000 licensed lobster catchers work aboard powerboats. They have the latest equipment and technology. Their boat engines are powerful and fast. The traditional ways of lobstering have been almost completely replaced.
