Mr. Bree's picture showing the retiring Harbormaster NOOT
and his entire staff.
Maarten Noot retired in 1954, not in 1953. The picture was
also taken in 1954 at the Oranjestad harbor. See Esso News
July 31, 1954. The Noot's were our neighbors until he
retired. He was the first harbor pilot in Aruba, and later
became the first Harbor Master. Around 1948 he was stationed
in the colony.
