Cow dumping – Back in the day when the fields were needed to make hay, the cattle would be taken to other island, dumped off the boat in this way and hauled to shore with a rope. They could swim, but the rope was to make sure they did not swim away. In the fall, the cattle would be herded back to the boat and brought back to the island for the winter.
