320 Ink helps the Maine Community
Most recently, 320 Ink teamed up with Rugged Seas for that limited run of special Emma Rose shirts to raise money and benefit the families of the four fishermen that were lost at sea on their fishing vessel, Emma Rose, late last year.
So, when you think of one business in Maine that would step up to bust their humps and help other struggling local businesses out due to the pandemic, who else would it be but 320 Ink? According to Channel 8 WMTW, 320 Ink owner Drue Nickerson immediately called a meeting of his creative minds last March when the pandemic was picking up steam and forcing us all into quarantine to come up with a plan to help other businesses that were hit super hard.

Taylor Strout spends months aboard the FV Northern Defender, allowing him months at home with his family. Author: Peggy Keyser (NEWS CENTER Maine) Published: 12:26 PM EST February 10, 2021 Updated: 12:32 PM EST February 10, 2021
UNALASKA, Alaska The fishing industry is woven into the fabric of our state. Safe to say that work is rugged, unpredictable, and looks different during different seasons. And most fishermen wouldn’t have it any other way.
Taylor Strout is the son of a fisherman; fishing simply runs in his blood. The job he has takes him what feels like a million miles away. He is on a boat that fishes out of Dutch Harbor, Alaska – about halfway out on the chain of Aleutian Islands. I asked him if he d ever calculated the actual distance from Portland to Dutch Harbor. I have not, I just know that it’s like four airports away. It takes a good 24 hours to get out here.
