Ajax in and out and the weather is gale #force8 - nice.


Quick team talk while the Russ the hydraulics expert prepares to jump aboard...



to sort out a few teething problems...



with the hydraulic controls for the Spencer Carter hauler...



with its restraining leash on...



the fish washer is big enough for sure...



view out on to the working deck from the most important room on the boat, the galley...



up in the wheelhouse Matt discusses a few minor modifications needed to the fish handling system...



new lifebelt matches the new mizzen sail - only boats that work fixed gear like netters and trawlers are rigged with a mizzen sail - to keep the boat head to wind when they are hauling the nets...



plenty of screens for the man on watch to watch over when taking a steaming watch...



looks like the new sardine boat the Mayflower is all set for action...



two old hands ride out tonight's gale...



as the  Govenek of Ladram prepares to sail...
