Six tonnes of ice please
With only 3 tonnes of ice taken at the start of the trip the Mor Breiz called in to Newlyn for enough ice to last for the rest of her 15 day trip...
though, the length of the trip can be dictated to by the kind and volume of fish caught...
a few hours later and she is back at sea with the first haul aboard...
a good haul of otoliths this morning...
plenty of monk tails up for auction this morning...
and some of those grandad cod...
with three planks sprung the Excellent sits peacefully on the bottom...
the Isles of Scilly has its own maritime paramedic service...
Tom on watch over a morning promising heavy cloud cover with the occasional burst of sunshine.
