Busted net, paint to be painted, holes to be filled and a shout for the lifeboat - a normalish sort of day for Newlyn


A belly section of trawl lost at sea ends up washed on the beach...


slap on the zinc paint...


three heads are better than one when it comes to mending sardine nets


and there's a few fathoms to mend yet...


which requires the utmost concentration from young Jack and old hand Jemimah under the watchful eye of skipper Dan...


Barry's autumnal maintenance schedule, on goes the the fibreglass matting and epoxy filler... 


one big french yacht, she will be amongst the last to visit Newlyn this season as the end of year gales are no doubt due to be ushered in at some time...


Ivan Ellen goes out on a shout...


to rescue the yacht Emerald Blue which was dismasted out in the middle of the Bay...


time to head for home after another successful mission is completed.
