Fishing focus - the beam trawler.
Brixham beam trawler Lady Maureen can be seen making her way to Newlyn after leaving the fishing gorounds south east of Start Point in Devon. Life aboard a beam trawler is typified by this account of a trip aboard the smallish beamer, Semper Allegro skippered on this occaision by the late Roger Nowell.
