This study uses a case study qualitative approach. Data obtained from primary and secondary sources. The data collection technique is done by interview, observation and documentation. The results of this study indicate that the local wisdom of mutual cooperation in the withdrawal of fishing boats in North Galesong has faded since the entry of modernity contamination. The change in the towing of the ship is based on rational considerations related to the effectiveness of work and respect for other community activities. The towing of ships carried out in mutual cooperation is more costly and time consuming. Towing ships using modern tools such as excavators is more efficient.
