and a shot of her leaving Newlyn back when she was fishing. Amongst many stories, she is perhaps most famous for being subjected to the kind of interest by one of Her Majesty's warships on patrol that you could do without when at sea - being shelled, in July 1959, by HMS Belfast while she was long lining!

I live at Rye Harbour in Sussex & looked out of my window at 19.30 hrs. Wed.27/04/11 & saw your PZ81 mooring up outside our Harbour Master's office. A fine looking vessell but could do with a paint!
