Viewing time: 10 minutes. Start with the scene of the building and parking lot. End with the scene of the two men looking under the Kellums' boat.

Linda has been elected chair of the Clam Sub Committee of the Virginia Marine Resources Commission. She and the members meet and discuss the problems, and try to find solutions.

Buck does not think the government has helped the situation. Supply and demand is the only way to go. Dave thinks the Bay is fished out and will never come back. Buck says a lot of people blame the Bay's problems on the watermen, and they feel like scapegoats.

Another one of the watermen, Chris Brown, says, "If the people stuck together and helped each other like the Guineamen--they ain't Guineamen, they're human beings, that's what they are; they live in Guinea, the world would be a lot better place."

The Kellums are ready to move the boat to the marina, only six months after laying the keel. The boat's cabin will only have four inches of clearance to get out of the barn, but the front of the barn has to be taken off. The men and Gail work together and succeed in raising the boat the necessary eighteen inches. They name the boat the Arlene Gail. (This section resumes after the footage of Ronnie and Linda.)

Ronnie is out in Tommy's boat and it looks like the boat is going to lose the engine. Luckily, the engine is fine and Tommy gets the boat repaired.

In a conversation from their home, Linda and Ronnie talk about their life. It sometimes takes weeks to get an engine fixed. One year Linda and Ronnie lost three weeks of work and lost $30,000. Ronnie describes himself as "an accident waiting to happen." Linda says they don't have a lot of things that others do, like health insurance. They can never get ahead. Despite the problems, they like their lifestyle.

The boat is ready to be towed out of the barn. The rudder is trailing too close to the ground, and may crash up into the hull.

Working together, they manage to get the rudder clear. Later, as they are driving down Route 17 to the marina, the brake pads on the trailer start smoking. Billy fears his life savings will go up in flames.

Have students review their post-graphic organizers from the first two lessons. Ask them to predict what will happen with the government ban on oystering and with the Kellums' boat. Tell them they will find out something the watermen are doing about the problems with regulation. They will also watch the Kellums prepare to move their boat.

Write the vocabulary words on the board. Read the contextual sentences aloud to students and help them determine the meaning of the words. Encourage them to listen for the vocabulary words in the video.

Show the third section of the video. Have students continue note-taking as in previous lessons, using the Video Note-Taking Form for Lesson 3. Remind students to record or draw pictures of key terms, names, events, and dates on the left side of the page. Notes should be taken in sequential order.

After Viewing

After watching the video, have students work in previously established small groups to extend each other's information. Students may want to take turns reading their individual notes aloud or sharing drawings so that other members of the group can add information they may have missed. All new information should be recorded on the right hand side of the Video Note-Taking Form.

Meet with the whole class and continue adding to the post-graphic organizer for Lesson 3 to summarize the key points from the video. Help students identify the major topics. You may want to replay sections of the video for extra discussion, or to verify the accuracy of the students' notes.
