Description

The crew of the tourist boat St. Nicholas III poses for a photograph. Standing on the dock are Captain Michael J. Billiris, Angelo V. Billiris, unidentified diver; on the boat are George M. Billiris, Theodore J. Billiris, unidentified, Ted M. Billiris, John M. Billiris, unidentified. The St. Nicholas Boat Line Sponge Diving Exhibition often employed younger divers and crew during the winter tourist season and older divers during the summer when sponging was at its best. Thus, tourism became an important local economic strategy.
