Not too sure of the correct translation for this boat - Moar would seem to mean big or large (from the Irish).....many thanks to Ian Soulsby (Lowena Mor) who tells me that he named this boat about 8 years ago when she came down from Weymouth and is in fact Cornish not Irish!.....
the Geordie boys are working in the dark - literally - on some port side door adjsutments....
lined up on the quay and waiting to be christened, hundreds of pots for the Emma Louise....
with a change in the weather later today, the buyers will pay top dollar for these line caught bass.....
likewise, the sardine boats are keeping processors like FalFish busy with fresh supplies.....
taking a break between sales, Stevenson's auctioneer Ian Oliver tots up the slaes figures on a relatively small market....
it seems that buyers are forced to get down on their knees and pay homage to the quality fish from Jake's Go for it.....
delicacies in the case of monk cheeks from the Lizard boat, Scorpio....
weights of a box of good sized monk tails being checked.
