In the Star Inn no doubt the wake will be well attended and many a yarn spun recounting the life and times of the BMC over the next few days.......
and as one leaves the port, a brand new addition to the Cornish fleet in the guise of the Sparkling Line, the ex-Grimsby auto-liner now owned by Waterdance Ltd (Govenek of Ladram) and registered in Padstow where she will now be based........
good to see more evidence of investing in quality boats built for the conditions here in the Western Approaches........
to fit in with another sparkling line.......
like this euro-cutter beam trawler built for the port of Plymouth........
looking down by the head, and nothing to do with Bruv stood on the bow of course, the Admiral Gordon with 180 boxes makes her way in to land, probably her last trip on the cuttles as they are now beginning to show up dead on the grounds with the back bones being seen floating on the surface off in the deep water, a sure sign........
when she will pass the Jacoba looking as if she is almost ready to hit those scallop beds........

another job for Brian and the guys on Monday........
fancy leaving the evidence........
over in Penzance Dock there's a new addition to the Marine Discovery fleet......
while the boys aboard the work boat My Lady Norma must be wondering if they will ever set sail......
doing just what is says in the window - check out Blurring the Lines at Penzance Contemporary gallery till 21st March.
